Also: 2021 first-semester All-Access Pass now available, and "Disney's Jews" announced today
On Thursday, December 17 at Noon ET Jewish Culture 101 will present its last class for 2021, and it’s a real gem. Stephen Sondheim’s Into the Woods is a multilayered, playful, sophisticated show whose music and lyrics contain surprises behind every tree - if you know where to look. If you come to class you’ll find out!

Today I announced Disney’s Jews, a repeat of a very popular October class that explores the many, many Jews who wrote great Disney songs, from “Bippity Boppity Boo” to “It’s a Small World” to “Be Our Guest” to “That’s How You Know.” We’ll also look at the Jews making great Disney music today. Tuition: $2. Sign-up: bitly.com/BenkofDisneyClass
