Event
Israeli storyteller, writer, poet, theater director, producer, chef, and bon vivant, Yossi Alfi, immigrated to Israel as a young child and spent his formative years in a transit camp (ma'abarah), a place where many immigrants of his generation got their first taste of life in the Jewish state. He has written much about that experience. If you're curious about what life was like for the generations that built the State of Israel, come hear him.
