The Arch:

Your Gateway to Hillel Institute

As you know, the theme of Hillel Institute 2013, Valuing Experiences; Experiencing Our Values, was selected by the conference Leadership Team to celebrate our commitment to meaningful Jewish experiences and advancing our Jewish and organizational values.


Along the lines of celebrating – we hope you’ll take advantage of the fun and exciting opportunities to enjoy St. Louis and your colleagues on Tuesday evening of Institute.  As you register, you will see an extraordinary opportunity for women of Hillel to network at an event over Tuesday Dinner, and a chance for you to catch Mary Poppins at The Muny, America’s Oldest and Largest Outdoor Musical Theater, among other great choices out on the town.  And, of course, we’ll celebrate as a field Wednesday night at a surprise evening event!
