Talks and Demos and Signings, Oh My

Portico on Tour!

Hey everyone, I am so excited to announce the Fall, 2023 tour dates for Portico: Cooking and Feasting in Rome’s Jewish Kitchen—and I hope you can join me in celebration.

All of the virtual events are listed as Eastern Standard Time. More registration links will be added in the days to come as details are sorted, so check back soon. Don’t see your city listed and have a connection to a JCC, synagogue, or other institution that might want to host a book event? Message me so I can include them on the Winter/Spring leg of the tour.
