As part of its yearlong 125th birthday celebrations, Beth Abraham Synagogue will present Kaleidoscope of Us! From Babies To Bubbies: Celebrating, Sharing, Reflecting, Noshing, from 1 to 4 p.m., Sunday, Aug. 25.
The afternoon of art, food, and entertainment will feature a performance of Jewish music by The Robyn Helzner Trio from 1 to 2 p.m.
