What’s in a Name?  A Storytelling Workshop on Names

Peninnah Schram tells us, “Our names carry many meanings and blessings in various traditions. Names can shape our lives and our personalities.” In this participatory workshop, we will explore sources, meanings, and connections to our various names – and how they have influenced us.
