Emerging Philanthropists invites our $2,500+ young adult donors and their partners to The Collective’s first event of the year. Join us at BAR Center on July 25th at 7:00 PM for an evening of sunset glasses of wine overlooking the beach and an expertly-designed program of tasty bits paired with a curated exploration of Israeli and Jewish media.
The dinner is served mezze style, where multiple items are brought out over the course of the evening in concert with TV clips and discussion. While it is not a traditional full-course meal, we promise you won’t go home hungry.
Aliza Grayevsky Somekh, a Bay-Area-based Israeli chef and food history enthusiast, has teamed up with Esther Kustanowitz, a Los-Angeles-based expert in the increase of Jewish portrayals on the small screen. Together, they will present clips from TV and film accompanied by corresponding Jewish foods.
We look forward to seeing you on July 25th.
Warmly,
Warren Coughlin (Chair), Hallie Brookman (Vice Chair), Elyse Werksman, Shirley Pakdaman,
Daniel Barkin, Mahrad Enayati, Charlotte Coughlin, Jaymie Rubin, Ross Karetsky, and Danielle Horowitz
