Cooperman Academy of Jewish Learning

We are delighted to share with you the Adult Education programs at B’nai Torah Congregation, presented by the Lillian, Philip, and Gerry Cooperman Academy for Adult Jewish Learning. This year’s offerings include a rich variety of classes, scholars-in-residence, author series events, Women’s League and Men’s Club programs, and so much more, each designed to bring our community together in meaningful learning and connection.

For more than 20 years, the Cooperman Academy has been at the heart of adult Jewish learning at B’nai Torah, offering opportunities that are diverse, engaging, and relevant. This vision became a reality thanks to the generosity of Amy and Fred Weiss, who sought to make a lasting impact on our community. After conversations with Rabbi Emeritus David Steinhardt, they recognized that creating a vibrant program of adult Jewish education would be a powerful way to honor and perpetuate their family’s legacy.

With their leadership and ongoing commitment, the Cooperman Academy continues to flourish and welcome learners of all backgrounds and interests into a shared journey of exploration, growth, and connection. We are deeply grateful to Amy and Fred for their vision, and to each of you who make our learning community so strong.
