Circles are small affinity groups of self-selected IKARites who co-create a close-knit, micro-community. Your Circle will include fellow IKARites to share a fun evening, a deep conversation, a creative project, or an experience. We hope to see IKARites connecting with each other around LA and beyond. Have questions? Contact [email protected]. Circles are open to IKAR members only.

Yes, we Baby Boomers are still savvy, adventurous, politically engaged and socially active. Some might even say we’re the life of the party! We like to meet, greet, schmooze, read, study, eat, eat, and eat, go to concerts, plays, and enjoy one another – even outside the walls of IKAR.
Join our virtual, interactive circle using the Jewish Studio Process. Explore the power of making process art in community as a tool for personal and collective renewal. All are welcome – no art experience needed. This is not your grandpa’s beit midrash!
Poetry can often heal, elevate the soul and awaken the heart. Read Jewish poets up to the present and explore the historical context of their writing, spiritual relationships, personal agonies, and joys.
Knit, crochet, schmooze, enjoy. We welcome people of all skill levels and experiences!
Join fellow IKARites and sing soul-inspiring melodies in harmony with Rabbi Jonathan Bubis! Bring an instrument, share a meal, and sing your heart out. Light refreshments will be served.
We are an intergenerational circle of men who support one another in becoming the men we want to be in the world.
