Cultural Arts programming at Temple Beth-El provides another outlet for our community to experience Judaism from a different perspective. We explore Jewish life through the lens of artistic expression. This programming, both innovative and engaging, has included concerts, speakers, artwork, theater, story tellers, films and dance.

A sampling of our programming includes:

• Israeli dancing lessons for children and adults...joyously dancing together since 2002
  Our Spring Season starts on January 26 at 7:30 pm. If you want to come and see if you like it, the first session is free for new dancers.
