FOR FAMILIES & CHILDREN
We want to help you plan a meaningful High Holy Day experience for your whole family. Our family services on Rosh haShanah and Yom Kippur are open to the public and no tickets are required. This experience is great for children through 3rd grade.
We also offer free childcare during our sanctuary services on Rosh haShanah and Yom Kippur evening and morning. Click here to register for childcare.
FRESH FOOD INITIATIVE
Instead of a canned food drive during the High Holy Days, we request donations to our Fresh Food Initiative. Funds from this initiative allow our food justice and sustainability program to provide fresh food to those in need during the winter, when our urban farm is asleep.
