Programs

1
How to Encounter Jewish Texts Using the Miriam Anzovin Method
In this workshop, Miriam walks participants through her unique 4-step method of encountering Jewish texts in a dynamic, engaging, and personal way. This is the method she uses in her own learning and in creating her social media videos. After sharing how students can utilize these steps in their own learning, Miriam and the participants will learn and react to a text together. (60-75 minutes.)
2
Jewish Learning as Jewish Identity
Miriam will share how her life experiences as a formerly Orthodox woman, and now secular Jew, led her to deep emotional engagement with Jewish text study. She will discuss her spiritual journey, Daf Yomi, the genesis of her #DafReactions social media videos, and being a "Talmud Influencer" in the public eye. Can include a Q&A at the end. (Weekday version includes three short videos.)
3
Nerd Talmud
Join Miriam on an epic quest through the landscape of Jewish texts to discover parallels and references connecting to fan-favorite sci-fi and fantasy literary worlds, including The Lord of the Rings, A Song of Ice and Fire, and beyond. Together, we will seek out and explore intersections of nerd culture with Jewish themes and ideas. (60 minutes)
4
Once Upon A Talmud: A Jewish Lore Reactions Workshop
Miriam will present one of her favorite stories from the Talmud, featured in her Jewish Lore Reactions series. Using Miriam’s 4 step method of encountering Jewish texts, participants will explore the story, fascinating characters, surprising plot twists, and a "choose your own adventure" ending, all while bringing their own thoughts, feelings, emotions, and reactions to the experience.
