Often beginning with a kernel of truth\, they are repeated and embellished until they have become a part of history. To explain these inaccuracies\, we open the vaults of history to find the true story. \nBritish colonists began arriving in North America in the early 17th century. This class examines the social and political landscape of 17th and 18th century America. Beginning with the formation of the colonies through the beginning of the struggle for independence\, we discuss American beliefs and society bringing into sharp focus the causes of the American Revolution and the political and social actions that lead to “the shot heard round the world.” \nClick here to register!

No matter what your skill-level\, your past experience (or lack of experience)\, or your age\, my goal is always the same…to have you succeed with your creativity and imagination\, to learn to SEE after many-lookings\, and to have fun doing it.

Molly is the founder of a private music therapy practice\, Connected Voice Creative Healing\, supporting people who are experiencing grief and loss\, life transitions\, and spiritual struggles. Previously\, Molly worked in hospice care from 2008 to 2024. Molly also enjoys songwriting\, creating mixed media art\, and engaging in interfaith community work. \n  \nDates & Workshop Descriptions: \nWednesday\, February 18; 2-3:30 p.m.\nWorkshop 1: Grief and Loss: Understanding the Ongoing Process \nThis workshop will explore the basics of grief and loss\, offering ways to understand the process\, recognize the many possible grief responses across all domains of life\, and learn resources for coping. There are many modern frameworks for learning about grief\, and most do not present a set series of stages followed in a particular order. However\, there are some misconceptions about grief that are culturally perpetuated and may do harm if not contextualized. This workshop will give attendees a basic vocabulary for thinking and dialoguing about grief\, emphasizing its non-linear nature\, the importance of self-compassion\, and the necessity of support. One goal is for each attendee to leave with a way of conceiving of the grief process that feels accessible and relevant to their lives. \n  \nTuesday\, March 10; 2-3:30 p.m.\nWorkshop 2: Going Through Changes: Non-Death Grief and Loss \nGrief arises as we experience various life milestones\, changes in health and ability\, and social relationships\, to name a few. Attendees will learn about non-death losses that may be well-defined\, ambiguous or a little of each\, and will leave with a framework for resilience that may be helpful in coping. \n  \nTuesday\, April 21\, 2-3:30 p.m.\nWorkshop 3: Moving Through\, Not Getting Over: Death-Related Grief and Loss \nThis workshop will focus on some of the common experiences connected to the dying and/or death of a person in our lives. Attendees will learn more about the natural process of grief\, integrating grief into one’s life\, and how to recommend support or seek it for oneself when acute grief may be complicated or prolonged. \nClick here to register!\nTo register for individual dates\, email rsakofs@phillyjcc.com \n  \nThis workshop series is in partnership with: URL:https://www.phillyjcc.com/event/grief/2026-04-21/ LOCATION:Kaiserman JCC\, 45 Haverford Rd\, Wynnewood\, PA\, 19096\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.phillyjcc.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/supportgroup-8benefits690x400.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Gems":MAILTO:gems@phillyjcc.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260422T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260422T110000 DTSTAMP:20260403T163302 CREATED:20260304T144546Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260304T144546Z UID:10003096-1776852000-1776855600@www.phillyjcc.com SUMMARY:Gems at the J | The Establishment of the Colonies in British North America DESCRIPTION:Myths\, legends and lore have become a significant part of the story of the American Revolution. Often beginning with a kernel of truth\, they are repeated and embellished until they have become a part of history. To explain these inaccuracies\, we open the vaults of history to find the true story. \nBritish colonists began arriving in North America in the early 17th century. This class examines the social and political landscape of 17th and 18th century America. Beginning with the formation of the colonies through the beginning of the struggle for independence\, we discuss American beliefs and society bringing into sharp focus the causes of the American Revolution and the political and social actions that lead to “the shot heard round the world.” \nClick here to register!
