Eric Neumann is a New York City–based stand-up comedian and one of the fastest-rising names in comedy today. He recently made history as the first comedian to release an original comedy special on The Roku Channel, with his special-documentary hybrid Call Your Mom — a project built around his viral bit of calling his mom onstage during his sets.
Grab your friends and come laugh your tuchus off with Marc Gerber opening for Eric Neumann!
In this second of a series of workshops for this year, we will explore Jewish teachings with each other related to the new Hebrew month of Kislev. We will focus on how to plant our own unique seeds of holiness to bring more light into the darkness.. We will then respond through making our own art.
The Northshire community is invited to roll up their sleeves and cook with us. We will provide all supplies to assemble enchiladas together at the synagogue, and then we will transport them to an organization in Arlington that will handle distribution to local families. This is a simple, flexible, and meaningful way to make a direct impact.
Major funding for this program is provided by the Harold Grinspoon Foundation.
Laemmle’s List.is a documentary that follows artist and educator Deborah Blum as she investigates the remarkable story of her relative, Carl Laemmle, founder of Universal Studios, who used his influence to help Jews escape Nazi Germany. Through newly discovered documents and conversations with descendants of families Laemmle helped, Blum uncovers a largely overlooked chapter of his life and legacy. The film also becomes a personal journey through family history, memory, and the enduring impact of one person’s efforts to save lives during the Holocaust.

“When we think of Vermont we don’t immediately think of Jewish life. Living here as a Jew, it can be easy to feel distant and disconnected from Jewish community, particularly if you don’t live near a town with a synagogue. JCVT has worked tirelessly and effectively to bring our people together from the four corners of Vermont to make connections, build community, and support Jewish life in the Green Mountains.”
