Summer Programs–2022
Will you be in the Berkshires for a week, a month, or two this summer? K.I. is a great place to find exciting events celebrating Jewish learning, culture and community. Whether your interests tend toward film, music, study or prayer, or the great outdoors, you are assured of a worthwhile experience and a warm welcome.
Everyone is welcome to join in services, events, and meals - indoors or ba'ohel.
