Let’s enter Shabbat together with sweet, spirited Kabbalat Shabbat service in nature.

Come and learn about LA’s Bold New Housing Plan CHIPS (Citywide Housing Incentive Program) and how to support it.

A monthly gathering for IKAR members who are caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s/ Dementia, Parkinson’s Disease or Stroke facilitated by Yael Wyte, MSW. This group generally meets on the 2nd Sunday of each month from 10-11. Some exceptions apply to accommodate special occasions. Contact us for further information.

We come together to prepare and serve dinner twice a month to residents at PATH, a transitional home for veterans on Cotner in West LA

We welcome everyone to our Shabbat morning services, no matter their level of observance, experience, or familiarity with Hebrew. Daven with us in person at Shalhevet, or join us virtually on YouTube or Zoom. Childcare is available during Services for kids ages 2-5. Stay afterward for our kosher, vegetarian community lunch. Upcoming B’nai Mitzvahs: 11/2/2024 Bodhi Sroka 11/9/2024 Leo Weiss 11/23/2024 Adar “Adi” Lev Goldman 11/30/2024 Franklin Ariel and Cassidy Bulkacz 12/7/2024 Orly Grace Creasey 12/14/2024 Caleb Eamonn Fitzpatrick

Before the sun sets, gather with your fellow IKARites for a BYO picnic and hang! We won’t be having services, but come connect with others oceanside.

Join Green Action’s Beach Clean-Up at 4:30 pm right before IKAR’s super-fun BYO beach picnic at 5:30 pm.

We are an intergenerational circle of men who support one another in becoming the men we want to be in the world.

Poetry can often heal, elevate the soul and awaken the heart. Come join IKAR’s Jewish Poetry Circle as we read Jewish poets — the Oneg Shabbos poets of the Warsaw Ghetto, Medieval Sephardic poets, Israeli and Jewish-American poets up to the present—the historical context of their writing, spiritual relationships, personal agonies and joys. The Circle is not an academic writing class but rather an informal experience of a committed group of participants to explore and hopefully bond with Jewish poetic expression and with each other.

We need prayer and connection more than ever during this time. So every weekday at 8am, we will gather online for a half-hour Zoom of prayer and learning.

Join us for a literary study of the text of the Torah, aided by the keen eyes of the classical commentators. This class is co-sponsored by IKAR.

Come spend some of our time enjoying events and experiences with those in our age group.
