Cincy Jewfolk: Stories From The Tribe

We’re so happy to share that Cincy Jewfolk’s first annual live storytelling show, Stories from the Tribe, will be on November 10th, 2025!

About This Event

An event by Cincy Jewfolk, Stories from the Tribe features 12 women on the bima telling their true Jewish stories that have a thread to Jewish motherhood – whether that’s about their own Jewish mom or about being a Jewish mom – and includes all of the ups and downs, highs and lows, laughs and tears that come with the real-life experience of Jewish motherhood in Cincinnati.

During this time, it’s even more important for us Jews to gather and tell our stories – loud and proud!

So this, is that!

This promises to be a stunning night of storytelling and community and we’d love for you to join us!
