A new initiative offering programming to members of four neighborhood synagogues (The Community Synagogue, Port Jewish Center, Temple Beth Israel, and the Reconstructionist Synagogue of the North Shore) ages 55 and above.
We are hoping these programs give you fun and exciting new ways to connect to your synagogue community. The Shalom Synagogue Village also provides the opportunity to meet and foster new relationships with members of other local synagogues, further deepening your connection to the synagogue community and the greater Port Washington area.
New programs are being added regularly. Please check with us.

Almost, Maine is a play by John Cariani, a collection on nine short, interconnected stories set in the mythical town of Almost, Maine, on a cold winter night under the Northern Lights. The play explores themes of love, loss, and connection through a series of whimsical and magical vignettes, where residents experience the life-altering power of the human heart.
Meet other Synagogue Village members at a night out at the theatre right here in Port Washington!

Play Reading Group
First SESSION Wednesday, 11/5
Join us for a new Play Reading Group at the Port Washington Public Library, led by author and literature scholar Marilyn Oser.

The group meets 7:15–8:45 p.m., and participants are asked to bring their own copy of the play.
Every Tuesday from 6:00 – 7:30 PM
at Sportime Port Washington
FALL – The season runs from September 16, 2025 – June 9, 2026. Limited space is available. Please let Bari Ziegel know if you’d like to be contacted if there’s no space and you would like to fill-in.
