It's the opening night of the first "The Art of Jewish Food." This evening celebrates local musical icon Flory Jagoda with a screening of the new documentary "Flory's Flame," and a special guest appearance by Flory herself! Plus a tasting of Sephardic cuisine.
Flory Jagoda's perfect, trilling voice invokes the soulful musical Altarac family heritage stretching back to pre-Inquisition Spain. "Flory's Flame" interweaves the life story of this 90-year old legendary Sephardic National Heritage Fellow musician raised in Bosnia and Croatia with her September 2013 Celebration Concert at the US Library of Congress. Documentary, 58 minutes. http://www.florysflamemovie.com/
Flory will perform a set of music with Howard Bass and Susan Gaeta.
The Art of Jewish Food, powered by the JCCNV, is an inaugural event of theatre, film, music, cookbook authors, plus cooking demonstrations and tastings. AJF is supported by a grant from The Jewish Food Experience, a program of The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington (www.jewishfoodexperience.com).
