JCC Mid-Westchester

Thursdays, April 23–May 28 12:20–2:00 PM Admission: $324
In this course, we’ll explore brush techniques, character structure, and the beauty of different script styles. Through
 guided exercises on lines, pressure, and movement, students will learn 
to connect mind, breath, and brush—discovering a state of flow through 
ink.
 No experience is needed—just
 curiosity and a calm mind. You may be surprised at how meditative and 
grounding the rhythm of ink can be!
<h3>About the Instructor</h3>
Sinrong Chen
is an artist whose practice bridges the traditions of Chinese 
calligraphy and ink painting with a contemporary sensibility. She has 
developed a style that emphasizes the fluidity of brushwork and the 
meditative rhythm of ink on paper. Her paintings often draw inspiration 
from nature—birds, flowers, and flowing forms—expressed through bold 
brushstrokes that celebrate both discipline and spontaneity. She sees 
the act of painting as a dialogue between control and chance, where each
 stroke captures a fleeting moment of flow.

Break out your leg warmers and shoulder pads because The Legend of Juan Jose Mundo is about to send you back to 1984! This
 delightful coming-of-age gem captures all the awkward charm and 
big-hearted earnestness of Jewish teenage life in suburban White Plains.
Sixteen-year-old Julie (Anna Mirodin from Priscilla)
 thought she’d be hosting a female exchange student for three months—but
 when the charming and effortlessly cool Juan Jose Mundo (Alexandro 
Byrd) shows up from Spain, everything changes. The guys want to be him, 
the girls want to be with him, and poor Julie can’t help but fall head 
over heels. With the help of her bold best friend Suzanne (Hannah Kepple
 from Cobra Kai), Julie must find the courage to say how she 
feels before Juan’s American adventure comes to an end. What follows is a
 sweet, nostalgic journey through first crushes, loyal friendships, and 
the courage it takes to speak up for yourself.
This 92–minute film recently won the Next Wave Jury Prize at the Miami Jewish Film Festival.
This special event will feature a post-film discussion with director Michael Walker&nbsp;and writer Susan Gomes.Admission: $20Plus, the Manischewitz food truck will be onsite from 4:30 to 7:30! Come early and eat before the show!
