Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin
Saturday, June 1, 12:30 pm (after Shabbat Kiddush)
Embarking on a legendary collaboration launching them to stardom, two friends since childhood have the world at their feet until they discover that their success, brilliance and money won’t protect them from their own creative ambitions or the betrayals of the heart. New participants welcome!

The Sisterhood Torah Fund Book Club is open to ALL STUDENTS. You do not need to be a member of Sisterhood to participate. Participants are encouraged to make a minimum annual donation of $54 to attend. The Sisterhood of NSS Beth El has a long history of supporting the Conservative/Masorti Movement’s Torah Fund through the sponsorship of an impressive array of annual classes, led by our clergy and talented staff and volunteers.
