Adult Education at Temple Sholom of Chicago.
Our congregation values Torah and comprehensive Jewish learning. The Adult Education program allows members, whether a young adult, young couple, parent, mature adult or senior, to learn something new.
Discover the joy and excitement of Jewish study by enrolling in Adult Education classes that cover a gamut of topics, including basic Judaism, Hebrew, philosophy, Jewish responses to contemporary challenges, the study of Bible and other texts and Jewish and Israeli history. Our Adult Education classes are on Sunday mornings and Monday evenings at Temple Sholom of Chicago, with additional special opportunities with visiting Guest Speakers, Monday evening "mini-semester" courses, and Saturday and Tuesday morning study groups.
