All are welcome to join us for Pride Shabbat Under the Stars sponsored by Beth El Temple's Inclusion Committee. Come for all the things you love about Shabbat Under the Stars, including a joyful service outside and dinner with your Beth El friends, and stay after dinner for a special program in honor of Pride Month!
Adults will hear from Ozzy Gold-Shapiro (they/them), a curious historian, Yiddishist, musician, gifted storyteller, and senior facilitator from Keshet. Combining their own life story with song and text study, join Ozzy for an communal exploration of the importance of transition — temporal, spatial, physical, & metaphysical — in the Jewish context. At the same time, Dr. Eliyahu will run a program for kids about LGBTQ inclusion.
This event is being underwritten by the Diane & Richard Lieberfarb Endowment Fund, a named fund within The Endowment Fund of Beth El Temple.
