QueerKAR Backyard BBQ

Join us as we explore: The Amen Effect (session 2) We’ll use pieces from Rabbi Brous’s book ‘The Amen Effect’ to explore the healing powers of community and kindness. The IKAR Creating Circle is rooted in the Jewish Studio Process. Each session invites you to a hands-on, in-person experience as a creative soul —no art experience needed. Through text study, reflection, and creative processes, you’ll tap into your own insight, get clearer, and grow more resilient. The Creating Circle is a welcoming space for you to slow down, speak and listen, and be in touch with your innate creativity. The Jewish Studio Process is structured and open-ended. What emerges is often unexpected. It’s not about making ‘art’, but it’s about discovering what is true for you. You’ll leave lighter, more grounded, and more connected to your own voice.

After our online Minyan on Monday mornings we open a short Grief Garden Circle, a sacred listening space, from 8.30-9.00am.  Please join us there if you are holding grief.

This month, we will be reading Mazeltov: A Novel by Eli Zuzovsky. We meet monthly via Zoom (link sent out the morning of) to discuss books with a Jewish connection. If you’re interested in joining email [email protected].

Once a month, TRIBE is creating our own Beit Midrash (house of study) for us to engage with Jewish text to find how we can live more fulfilling, meaningful lives as we navigate our 20s and 30s! Each session will take us on a journey of text exploration and introspective work. Part of the session will be studying in hevruta, or with a study partner, and part of the session will be taught by R’ Hannah Jensen. No previous text study required! Join us for dinner, study, and lively discussion. Timeline: 7 PM – Dinner 7:45 PM – Learning (indoor/outdoor)
