Learn about the mild-mannered beginnings and history of comic books from their inception in the 1930s to the modern day. We will go over the origins of the medium of comics and talk about how Jewish culture has influenced them from the beginning. We'll also deal with hard-hitting questions such as, "Has Spider-Man become bar mitzvah?" Led by Kyle Steele.
This class will take place in person and via Zoom. You can receive the Zoom by RSVPing below.
All are welcome. Please RSVP below.
Building Entry for Lifelong Learning Activities
For security reasons, the building always remains locked. It is the responsibility of member participants to bring the door code and use it to come inside. Since the code cannot be transmitted by email, please contact one of our staff if you don't have it yet: Rachel Pollak (503-248-4662, ext. 2) or Tara Anderson (ext. 4).
If you are not a member of Havurah, we hope you will join us for this class, but we cannot share the code with you. Your instructor will email you with instructions for entering the building a week or two before the class begins.
We also want to encourage everyone to arrive on time, particularly those who do not have a code. This will minimize disruptions for students and teachers.
