Join us for a special Juneteenth Creating Circle to explore the power of perception, and how our encounters shape the world through us. Using text, discussion, process art-making, and reflection we’ll engage the Jewish Studio Process in a spirit of curiosity and discovery. No art experience needed. All (ages 13+) are welcome. Facilitated by Ann Bohrer and Ross Berman. Presented by IKARites of Color Circle and the IKAR Creating Circle. We will meet in the Shalhevet art room (third floor, room 306) at 4pm, before Kabbalat Shabbat services.

Wind down and get ready for Shabbat. We are diverse: still working and retired; single, divorced, widowed, and in a relationship; have children, grandchildren, pets, plants, or none of the above; Angelinos and transplants. What we have in common is ikar, a multitude of experiences, and a desire to spend some of our time enjoying events and experiences with those in our age group (60+).

Our annual Pride Shabbat returns to Pico-Robertson for an evening of food, ritual, and powerful conversation. Daven with us in person at 6:30pm PT at Shalhevet (910 S Fairfax Ave) or on YouTube. Then join us for a conversation with Dr. Sara Glass, author of Kissing Girls on Shabbat, and Lani Santo, CEO of Footsteps, discussing LGBTQ+ identity, chosen family, and building a self-determined life after leaving ultra-Orthodoxy. Co-Sponsored with JQ.

Every Saturday morning at 9am, join Dev Brous and/or Dr. Barry Goldstein for a meditation session on the Shalhevet rooftop. And find your way to sip some homemade herbal tea blends, FromSoil2Soul, near the coffee station in the kitchen.

We welcome everyone to our Shabbat morning services at 9:30am PT, 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! 6/20/2026 Levi Hochman 6/27/2026 Milo Reid Greenberg-Creel 7/25/2026 Michael Goldstone 8/1/2026 Jonah Pulde 8/15/2026 Jonah YoonWoo Kend 8/22/2026 Noa Ellis Goldstein 8/29/2026 Archer Mekor Sroka 10/10/2026 Myla Vener 10/17/2026 Ayla Morchower 10/24/2026 Samuel Ethan & Joshua Gabriel Goldstein 11/7/2026 Lucille (Luci) Halpern-Fingerhut 11/14/2026 Henry Posalski 11/21/2026 Bo Mandell 11/28/2026 Ezekiel Mataan Brous-Weber 12/5/2026 Samuel Rafael Marquit 6/20/2026 Levi Hochman 6/27/2026 Milo Reid Greenberg-Creel 7/25/2026 Michael Goldstone 8/1/2026 Jonah Pulde 8/15/2026 Jonah YoonWoo Kend 8/22/2026 Noa Ellis Goldstein 8/29/2026 Archer Mekor Sroka 10/10/2026 Myla Vener 10/17/2026 Ayla Morchower 10/24/2026 Samuel Ethan & Joshua Gabriel Goldstein 11/7/2026 Lucille (Luci) Halpern-Fingerhut 11/14/2026 Henry Posalski 11/21/2026 Bo Mandell 11/28/2026 Ezekiel Mataan Brous-Weber 12/5/2026 Samuel Rafael Marquit 12/19/2026 Finch Rhodes
