The High Holidays invite us into a sacred time of reflection, renewal, and transformation. These days call us to pause, take stock of our lives, and connect deeply with who we are and where we’re headed. It’s a journey of turning inward and outward, of owning our imperfections, seeking forgiveness, and renewing our connection to one another, to ourselves and to the Divine. Using the Jewish Studio Process – a unique methodology that builds creative capacity by combining art therapy practices with a reimagined approach to Jewish learning – we’ll explore opening our hearts to the possibilities of change, repair, and renewal for ourselves and the world.

This program is offered free of charge and will take place on Zoom with closed captions.
