Why Be Jewish?
Can Jewish identity and connection enrich our lives?
If so, how?
What does this spiritual path, community, and way of life have to offer?
Join us to explore these questions, and to enjoy a no-experience-necessary Shabbat dinner.
All are welcome, whether you're Jewish or just curious!
