Details:
Join us for a very special presentation by Rabbi Paul Steinberg of Congregation Kol Shofar on the intersection of Hassidic folktales and Jewish mysticism. Inspired by the JCC’s current exhibit, Rebbe Nachman’s The Lost Princess: An Illustrated Retelling by Jessica Tamar Deutsch, Rabbi Steinberg will introduce us to the story of The Lost Princess, a Hasidic folktale first told by Rebbe Nachman of Breslov. It is an allegory of spiritual exile, searching, and the return of what has been lost. When a princess vanishes, a faithful Viceroy sets out on a long and uncertain journey to bring her home. Rebbe Nachman’s tale speaks across generations to the human experience of longing, disconnection, and the hope of return. Using the lens of Jewish mysticism, we’ll gain a deeper takeaway of this beloved folktale. There is no charge to attend this event; however, we ask that you please register in advance.
Cosponsored by the Osher Marin JCC and Congregation Kol Shofar
