Join us for the second session in our series when we will visit the Jewish community of Taiwan.

Taiwan’s Jewish community began in 1955 on a military base and is now deeply rooted in the life of the island. They may have one of the world’s only shuls that was unaffected by the pandemic! In fact, their Chanukah gathering of 200 during COVID may have been one of the world’s largest (legal) celebrations.

About our guide:

Leon is an artist who co-leads the Taiwan Jewish Community together with the 102-year-old Rabbi Einhorn for many years. Leon’s art is a powerful form of storytelling and much of his latest work, including dream-scapes and a Haggadah, is a journey into the exciting revival of Jewish life in that corner of Asia.

This series is made possible by a grant from the Congregation Ahabat Shalom Religious Fund and other generous donors.
