Jewish Youth Connection
It can be a little lonely as a Jewish teen in Maine—so the Center for Small Town Jewish Life is excited to offer the Maine Jewish Youth Connection, bringing together young adult Jews from across the state for learning, togetherness, and fun. We offer six one-off events throughout the year and throughout the state for Jewish teens who want to learn, connect with others, and have a really good time. Each event includes a component of learning and a fun activity (or as we say, another fun activity). If you attend three of our six events, you’re eligible to come with us on our big overnight Teen Shabbaton. If you know teens we should be connecting with, please let us know or just pass this information along! We’re always excited to meet new friends, and we’re happy to answer questions.
