Documentary 'Holding Liat' To Be Presented at Gordon Center
2025-11-13 19:00 - 21:30 (America/New_York) | Gordon Center for Performing Arts, 3506 Gwynnbrook Ave. Owings Mills 21117
The 2025 American documentary “Holding Liat” will be screened at Owings Mills’ Gordon Center for Performing Arts, 3506 Gwynnbrook Avenue, on Thursday, Nov. 13, at 7 p.m.

The film depicts the story of the family of Israeli hostage Liat Beinin Atzili and bears witness to their anguish while advocating for her release. Through their lens, the filmmakers allow the viewer to be a fly on the wall to the family’s inner dynamics, intertwined with the geopolitics of the region.
Last February, “Holding Liat” won the coveted Best Documentary prize at the Berlin Film Festival. The film was presented at the Tribeca Festival in June and has been screened at many film festivals around the world, winning prizes along the way. It was also recently shown on BBC television and screened in theaters throughout the United Kingdom.
“Holding Liat” was made by filmmakers and brothers Lance (producer) and Brandon (director) Kramer, owners of the Washington, D.C.- based Meridian Hill Pictures.
Award-winning filmmaker Darren Arnofsky is the co-producer of “Holding Liat,” and Baltimore Jewish community leader Janine Frier is one of the film’s executive producers.

Mezuzah Exhibition to be Featured at Jewish Museum of Md.
2025-11-16 13:00 - 15:00 | Jewish Museum of Maryland, 15 Lloyd Street, Baltimore, MD, 21202, United States
Join the Jewish Museum of Maryland for a reception event celebrating the opening of “Upon Thy Gates,” an exhibition presenting mezuzahs from around the world featured in the Elaine K. and Norman Winik Mezuzah Collection, together with a selection of mezuzahs from the JMM’s own collections.
The Winiks collected mezuzahs throughout their travels to many Jewish communities. “Upon Thy Gates” — which is on loan from Portland’s Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education, and curated by landscape architecture professor Kenneth I. Helphand — highlights 73 of these mezuzahs showcasing an eclectic range of styles, materials and Jewish symbols found in mezuzahs. The mezuzahs come from Denmark, England, Ethiopia, Germany, Holland, India, Iran, Israel, Italy, Morocco, Poland, the United States and Yemen. They date from the late 18th century to the work of contemporary artists.
In connection to the exhibition, the JMM will launch “Marking Passages: Mezuzah-Inspired Stories,” a new JMM production studio project in partnership with The Stoop storytelling series. The museum invites participants to share a story inspired by what mezuzahs evoke for them. Select stories from this project will be presented at a culminating live event at the museum next spring.
Attendees at the reception will have the opportunity to experience the exhibition in the JMM’s new Long Gallery. Plus, visit the museum’s recently opened audio/visual production studio, and take home a copy of “Mezuzah Magic,” a comic strip created by Naomi Rose Weintraub, the JMM’s public art coordinator.
Kosher refreshments will be served. The Jewish Museum is located at 15 Lloyd Street in East Baltimore, in between the historic Lloyd Street and B’nai Israel synagogues.

Sandra Seltzer Silberman HBI Conversations Series Featuring Yehudis Fletcher, author of "Chutzpah! A Memoir of Faith, Sexuality and Daring to Stay"
2025-11-18 11:30 - 12:30 | Zoom
As the daughter of a rabbi raised in an Orthodox Jewish community, Yehudis Fletcher struggled to conform to the strict expectations placed upon her and her siblings. As she grew older, these restrictions intensified and her questions for G-d hung heavier than ever. Repeatedly let down by those who were supposed to protect her and pushed on to a path that seemed to take her further away from who she really was, she began to yearn for a life where she could embrace all facets of herself. When Fletcher’s sexuality came in conflict with the expectations of her family and community, she was confronted with either losing the faith she loved or losing herself. Fletcher made a daring decision: she decided to stay.
About this Series:
Want to explore Jewish women’s lives through new and thought-provoking literary fiction, memoir and more? Want to connect first hand with those who create it?
