The space between words and emotion has gotten smaller over the last couple years as we find ourselves – in spite of ourselves – gravitating toward single mindedness and away from a place of compassionate growth. This year for Shavuot, Haver, Boulder’s Council for Rabbis and Cantors hopes to create a path that leads to connection, compassion and creative problem solving.
What: Shavuot 2025
When: Sunday, June 1st
Time: 5pm – Monday dawn
Where: Congregation Bonai Shalom, 1527 Cherryvale Road
The dusk-to-dawn celebration entitled “Jewish Unity and Disunity” features classes taught by lay leaders, rabbis and cantors that include movement, art, music, and scholarship. The 50-minute sessions draw on sacred and modern texts, and yes, they will address moving forward after October 7th.
This free event kicks off with a community potluck picnic (vegetarian) at 5pm at Congregation Bonai Shalom, features a plenary panel, multiple learning sessions, and opportunities for social engagement. Plus cheesecake!
Come for a single session or attend the whole evening.
