You’ll also have a chance to practice face painting and enjoy a pizza lunch. It’s an afternoon full of simcha, laughter, and friendship.

Join fellow Jewish communal professionals for an evening of learning, reflection, and restoration. We’ll begin with a conversation led by Rebbitzen Rebecca Starr, Vice President of Educational Initiatives at Shalom Hartman Institute, exploring the opportunities and challenges of working in Jewish communal life and how we can sustain ourselves in this meaningful work.

Afterward, unwind with a guided meditation and sound bath, along with food, drinks, and time to connect. Come refill your cup with a supportive community who “gets it.” Free and open to the community.
