Please join us in welcoming Jesse Feld back to the Knoxville Jewish Alliance as our new CEO!

Jesse is no stranger to our community.

Please join us in thanking Louise and wishing her all the best as she begins her new role as Head of School at KJDS. We are excited for her and look forward to seeing all she accomplishes in this next chapter!

Join us this Monday for a powerful and meaningful program with our Shinshin, Yaheli, as he shares his personal journey to Poland.

Through story and reflection, we will hear about his visits to Holocaust sites, family history, and the lasting impact of remembering and carrying these experiences forward. This is a unique opportunity to learn, listen, and engage in an important conversation about memory and identity.

We hope you’ll join us in showing support and being part of this important community experience.

Light noshes will be served, and you are welcome to bring your own lunch (please no pork or shellfish).
