The University of Cincinnati's Center for Jewish Education is scheduled to host a seminar Sunday, May 6 titled "Facing the Future: Jewish Education and Cincinnati in the 21st Century."

"Facing the Future" is set to feature a lecture by Sharon Feirman-Nemser, professor of Jewish education and founding director of the Mandel Center for Studies in Jewish education at Brandeis University in Boston.

A new partnership between UC, Brandeis University and the Hebrew Union College set up the event.

The UC Center for Jewish Education was created last fall by a $100,000 two-year grant from the Jewish Foundation of Cincinnati.

The seminar is to be held at Mayerson Hall in the Hebrew Union College at 3101 Clifton Ave.

After the seminar, a teachers' forum is scheduled for 2 p.m., followed by a kosher reception at 3:30 p.m. and a public forum from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m.

All events are free and open to the public.

For more information, contact professor Miriam Raider-Roth at 513-556-3808.
