Purim invites us to embrace the freedom found in letting go of what we think we know and opening ourselves to play and surprise. This holiday asks us to release fixed ideas about who we are and who we should be, allowing ourselves to be turned upside down. Through celebration, imagination, and encounters with the unexpected, we discover new possibilities in the unknown. Using the Jewish Studio Process – a unique methodology blending art therapy practices with a reimagined approach to Jewish learning and spirituality – we'll disrupt the ordinary, explore the sacred wildness of this topsy-turvy holiday, and tap into the transformative power that Purim offers.
This program is offered free of charge and will take place on Zoom with closed captions.
