MIRY’S LIST AT THE SKIRBALL CULTURAL CENTER:

LET MY PEOPLE COME and Syrian chef Abeer Aljrafi. The conversation explored Abeer’s leaving Syria and resettling with her family in Southern California with assistance from Miry’s List. The program was very well received with over 100 attendees—Jews, Muslims, old, young, families, new arrivals. Several attendees paid to underwrite the cost of the dinner for the Syrian families who attended.

This program brought Miry's List new arrival chefs to prepare a wonderful Passover-themed dinner. The evening featured a talk by Rabbi Sarah Bassin on welcoming the stranger as a Jewish value and a conversation between KCRW's Evan Kleiman
