Check this OWWWWWW-OWT, pigeons!! Alert reader Ilana sent me this link to a day-long image event for Jewish religious leaders at JTS in New York City. Of course I TOTALLY wish I could go!!
Look at that great panel! So a great big HA HA to those meanies who write snotty things about me denouncing what I’m doing as shallow and unworthy and an embarrassment to serious religious people everywhere. Jews are not exactly known for their shallowness and lack of respect for scholarship, AHEM, so consider me totally validated.
I know this will be a fantastic event, as JTS is an extraordinarily fine institution. Please keep me posted, those of you who attend, and take photos! Better yet, let’s plan a PeaceBang joint event with Union Theological and JTS around similar topics for next year or 2014.
It is not my understanding that this event is only for Jewish religious leaders. In fact it appears to be interreligious and open to clergy, leaders and laity alike. We’ll see what happens when registration opens.
A big hearty OMG I want to go, especially for “Jews and Shoes.”
I’m crossing Broadway to attend this on Sunday. I’m so excited! My only dilemma: what to wear to a conference called “What to Wear?” The pressure! [Love it!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let me know all about it, and give them my regards! I would love to see photos, too, if folks will give you permission to snap them. – PB]
