Jewish Sparks is both a public access television program broadcast in Chapel Hill and Durham, NC, and an informational and educational web-site. We present information, primarily in video form, of interviews and recordings of Jewish scholars, important Jewish leaders, and major Jewish educational events. Our goal is to promote a better understanding of key Jewish concepts and issues within both the Jewish and non-Jewish communities.

Lectures from the Carolina Center for Jewish Studies
Jewish Sparks is videotaping the popular lecture series sponsored by the Carolina Center for Jewish Studies at UNC-Chapel Hill and archiving them on this site. Lectures are generally available online two weeks after the presentation.

Other events
Other events and information on Jewish topics are also available here, with the videotape generally online three weeks after the event or interview.
