[ha-Safran] JGirls Magazine Teen Board Applications

[Kathleen Bloomfield via Hasafran]

Dear Safranim,

A friend asked me to forward the information below to all of you.  Please
forward to anyone you may know who might be interested.

Kathy B.


Hi,

I hope this finds you well and healthy.

*I wanted to be sure you know that applications for* *jGirls Magazine*
*’s 2021-2022 teen staff positions are now
open, and we continue to accept submissions in a variety of creative
formats on an ongoing basis.*

We are accepting applications
 now through April 11th
for our 2021-2022 teen editorial board & staff photography cohort from
girls and young women who will be in 10th-12th grades in the coming school
year.

*We are hosting a peer-led information session on Sunday, March 14th, from
4-5pm Eastern.*

jGirls is an online community and magazine by and for self-identifying
Jewish teenage girls and young women. jGirls' content is created by teens
and curated by a teen editorial board, and the magazine’s aesthetic is
shaped by teen staff photographers. (I've pasted more info below.)

Serving on the jGirls teen staff is both an exciting leadership training
program and a hands-on experiential position. jGirls editors and
photographers make a difference in the world by:

   - Building an online community of future Jewish female leaders.
   - Providing space for Jewish teenage girls and young women to make their
   voices heard.
   - Engaging in discussion across differences of background, opinion and
   perspective.

Applications are *due April 11th*. For more information and to apply, click
*here* 
.

*Please share these opportunities with the teens you work with*:

   - Share easily from our postings on Facebook
   

   , Instagram 
 and Twitter
   
.
   - Check out the blurb and graphic below for easy cutting/pasting into an
   announcement.
   - Access a flyer and more social media graphics and language here
   

   .

For those who want to get involved but aren’t ready to apply, we
accept *submissions
of creative materials* (fiction, nonfiction, poetry, art, photography, and
music) on an ongoing basis from girls ages 13-19. *Please note that we pay
our published teen writers/artists for their work.* For more information,
click *here* 
.

jGirls is committed to the visibility and representation of the different
voices, perspectives and experiences that comprise our diverse Jewish
community. We actively encourage applicants and writers/artists who are
diverse in their Jewish identification, sexual orientation, gender
expression and identity, race, ethnicity, and abilities. If a teen is
unsure whether jGirls staff positions are open to their specific Jewish
and/or gender identity, we encourage them to check our FAQs for those
answers 
 and more.

Please let me know if you have any questions or would like more information.

We look forward to hearing from the wonderful teens in your life.

Thank you so much!

Elizabeth

[ha-Safran] Question about early Hebrew printing title-page customs

[Henry Hollander via Hasafran]

Dear Friends,
  A common way of arranging the Tur of Hebrew books is the 
placement of two columns on each side with the publishing information between 
them. Does anyone know if these are specifically meant to refer to the two 
columns in Solomon’s Temple, Boas and Yachin?

All the best,
Henry__
