The Ripple Effect: Discover Community (Co-Sponsored by IKAR)

Sunday afternoons, March 16, 23, and or 30, 1:00-4:00 pm PST

Come to one, two, or all three programs!

Consider that your acts of creativity go far beyond everything you’ll ever see or ever know.

If you think that only dramatic, revolutionary actions have an impact, you can overlook how simple gestures might change lives.

You wield more influence than you can imagine! In these three workshops, we’ll explore viewpoints about compassion, blessing, and community.

Using the Jewish Studio Process, a methodology combining practices from the field of art therapy with a reimagined approach to Jewish learning, we’ll strengthen the inherent creativity inside each and every one of us

What do you think will happen if you’re more compassionate, more peaceful, and more resilient?

Jewish Poetry Circle

Wednesdays • 7 pm • NEXT: Mar 19

Virtual Jewish Poetry Circle

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.
