All NewsBeyond the Basics: A Six-Week Deep Dive into Jewish Wisdom at the Boulder JCC
If you’ve ever found yourself curious about the "why" behind Jewish traditions or if you’re looking for a modern way to engage with ancient ethics, the Boulder JCC is opening its doors for a transformative series.
Starting Wednesday, April 8, and running through May 13, the Boulder JCC will host a six-week exploration into the heart of Jewish culture, history, and practice. Unlike a standard lecture, this course is designed as a community-centered experience, using original source texts to spark conversation and connection.
The program will be guided by Amy Kopkin Atkins, a powerhouse in the Boulder education scene. With two decades of experience spanning Jewish summer camps, secular boarding schools, and even Buddhist-inspired universities, Amy specializes in creating "safe and brave spaces" for exploration.
As the founder of Loomeries and Program Director for Youth Celebrate Diversity, Amy brings a unique lens of equity, inclusion, and experiential learning to the classroom. Under her guidance, students aren't just memorizing facts; they are "weaving" (as her organization’s name suggests) their own identities into the broader Jewish story.
One of the most welcoming aspects of this series is its accessibility. No prior knowledge or Hebrew skills are required. All source materials are provided in translation, and there is no textbook to buy. The only prerequisite is an open mind and a desire to engage with your neighbors.
