Temple Sinai Summer Festival on the Hill
Sunday, June 12 2022
12-5
Join Temple Sinai of Marblehead for its first Temple Sinai Summer Festival On The Hill on Sunday, June 12th from 12-5. This outdoor event will feature live music and art by local professionals and emerging artists, creative activities for children, lots of great food and an opportunity to meet and celebrate the season with the Temple Sinai community.
Live entertainment will include Shir Davíd, a five-piece Jewish Reggae band playing powerful,
soulful music rooted in Jewish tradition infused with reggae and world rhythms. With the spiritual
power of ancient prayer, Shir Davíd adds a contemporary edge to traditional prayers and songs
and delivers a dynamic set of sophisticated and moving original pieces.
Another band to grace the stage will be a group led by Rabbi Michael Schwartz’s son, Yami who
will be bringing a Berklee College of Music ensemble to play some of Israel’s timeless classic
rock songs infused with hints of funk and jazz.
The long-standing North Shore Israeli Dance Group will be leading some participatory dancing
and there will be percussion and Israeli dance performances by student clubs from Epstein Hillel
School, led by their talented teachers.
The entertainment schedule is still growing, so stay tuned.
In addition to the live entertainment, there will be tables featuring artists, authors, clubs and
organizations connected to Temple Sinai including a plant sale by the Garden Committee, fresh
honey and maple syrup from Misty Meadow Farms, beautifully knitted bears and hats for sale by
the Knitting Club with proceeds supporting the Linus Project, as well as informational tables
featuring some the hallmark endeavors of the Social Action and Adult Education Committees,
as well as the long-standing work of the Sisterhood and Brotherhood.
The Temple Sinai Summer Festival is free and open to the public. Come visit our home on the
hill for some fun in the sun.

The Beetle
Yishai Orian, the director of this documentary film (55 minutes run-time) and the owner of an old Volkswagen beetle, is about to become a father. His mechanic says that the car will not last long, while his wife complains that the car is unsuitable for a baby. Attempting to keep his beloved car, Yishai goes on a journey that begins with the previous owners of the beetle, continues to Jordan to renovate the old car, and ends with the birth of his first child. The exciting, funny, sad, and intimate memories of the beetle’s previous owners blend with the director’s personal story.
7:20 pm
Introduction and ‘Purim Dessert’
In the spirit of the upcoming holiday let’s get creative:
Bring your best homemade or store-bought dessert, other than Hamantashen, that best expresses “what Purim is all about.”
We’ll briefly introduce the film and vote for the best Purim dessert – the winner gets a Purim-suitable prize!
Temple Sinai has special permission from the director to screen this film. The link will be provided on Zoom.
We will sign off to watch the movie in our own homes, then get together again to discuss the film!
