May 2017 Trip to New York City
Gantze Apple: A Weekend in Jewish New York
As part of our learning experience our touring at Torah programs provide our members a chance to learn and visit one city within the US and one trip abroad. Our trips this year are New York City and Spain. The last weekend of April our congregation traveled for the Gantze Apple: A Weekend in Jewish New York. Members Shelly Cohen and Dr. Joseph Zibrak provide their reflections below.
