Topics on Tisha B'Av tonight

Tisha B'Av, traditionally the saddest day in the Jewish calendar, starts tonight at sundown.  Join us for Topics on Turf tonight to learn more about this day, what's so sad about it, and what we can get out of communal mourning in 2010.  We'll be in the NW corner of Rittenhouse Square from 7-8:30, weather permitting, or at Moishe House Philly.  Check here for a location update if the weather looks iffy.  Felafel will be provided.

Next Tuesday, join 20s and 30s from across Philly for a picnic in Franklin Square!
