Saturday, April 3, 7:30 PM: We invite you to join us for our second Poetry evening on the themes of our spring holiday, Pesach. We will begin with Havdalah (the ritual at the end of Shabbat) and then share poems about freedom, renewal, rebirth, springtime, injustice, oppression, liberation, and hope. This is just a partial list of possible themes for this season. We invite you to read a poem that you love or a poem you have written that speaks to any of these themes or to what is on your mind and heart these days. You can also just come and listen. If you would like to read, please email marian.kelner(at)gmail.com. and let her know so we can better plan the evening. We hope to see you then!
Participation link will go out in our How to Participate email.
