Author Talks
Jewish Book Festival 2022-2023
This year’s festival spans across the winter and spring. Come to the in-person events or tune in virtually where you’ll be able to listen as authors read excerpts from their books, answer your questions, and share their inspiration and challenges in writing these works. Support small local business by purchasing the featured books online from our community partner Flyleaf Books of Chapel Hill, with shipping and curbside pickup available and a discount on this lineup of books for our attendees. This program is a unique partnership between Beth El Synagogue, Judea Reform Congregation, the Jewish Book Council, and Jewish for Good.
