Description

This year, our gathering begins on Tu B’shvat, a time when our trees remind us that new growth happens first beneath surface—we must plant seeds before we can harvest fruit. At ARJE 26 we will plant the seeds for growth and harvest the wisdom found within ourselves and the wisdom that can only be found when we gather together.

What Will We Do At ARJE 26?

ARJE 26 will plant SEEDS so that no matter where we are in our career, there is always something new to take with us.  We will do this through inspiring learning opportunities, meaningful worship, and creative methodologies. 

ARJE 26 will nourish our ROOTS so we can stand strong.  We will do this by connecting colleagues in similar roles and career stages, building and strengthening networks of support and understanding. 

 ARJE 26 will extend our BRANCHES ensuring that we are always growing and reaching new heights. We will do this by engaging in intensive skill building that will give each of us deeper ways to do our work and embrace our passions.

Who is ARJE 26 For?

ARJE 26 is for those who are brand new to Jewish education and those who have been in the field for years. It is for educators who work in community organizations, lead immersive experiences, oversee synagogue or after-school education, or work as guides and consultants to Jewish educators.  It is for anyone who identifies as a Jewish educator who has wisdom to share or could benefit from a nourishing community of colleagues.
