Healthy aging, lifestyle medicine and plant-based nutrition (Hybrid)
Thursday, Jan 30th 7:00p to 8:30p
The novelist and poet Wendell Berry once commented that “people are fed by the food industry, which pays no attention to health, and are treated by the health industry, which pays no attention to food.” The new field of lifestyle medicine is changing that, getting back to the basics that are so important in maintaining health and well-being. Dr. Friedman, a board-certified geriatrician and lifestyle medicine physician, will discuss the pillars of lifestyle medicine – especially whole-food plant-based nutrition – and how they promote healthy aging.

3rd Annual Telling Our Stories Through Food with author-illustrator Marilyn Naron (Hybrid)
Motzei Shabbat, Feb 22nd 7:00p to 9:00p
I Do Not Want Your Sympathy: Shiva, Snacks, and the Art of Remembering - What is comfort? What do mourners need, and is memory really a blessing? Join us for an evening of art and discussion with local author-illustrator (and former pastry chef) Marilyn Naron. The LJCC will exhibit Marilyn’s recent art commissioned for the Kansas Book Festival, including the central piece “I Do Not Want Your Sympathy,” a triptych painted and collaged entirely from sympathy cards her family received after the death of her sister in 1996. Marilyn is currently at work on an illustrated memoir, “How to Draw a Sister,” and her talk will explore how food, sympathy, memory, and Jewish death rituals come together in that project.
