Delve into the complicated lives of ten Biblical women through the lens of art and creativity.

Monthly meeting for the Teen Engagement Committee leadership. Havurah teens and their parents are welcome. We meet in Zoom Room Bet.

We all have stories to tell. This workshop will help participants to discover those stories they want to write and share. Through the use of writing prompts, assignments, and group critiques we will explore the world of memory and shared experiences. Students will (hopefully) feel liberated from their inner critics and get down on paper even those stories that they may have been reluctant to look at in the past. There will also be an emphasis on those experiences that are uniquely Jewish in nature, reflective of our culture and identity – whether we are Jews by birth or by choice, or among the still perplexed. No particular experience is necessary to participate in this workshop, other than a desire to explore your internal terrain and to be an attentive and thoughtful listener for other people’s, sometimes intimate, discoveries.

We gather to find some moments of quiet and shalom. Led by Rabbi Benjamin, Adela Basayne, Deborah Eisenbach-Budner, Nancy Becker, or Ria de Neeve. We will meet both in-person (Havurah Sanctuary or Library) and in Zoom Room Bet. Log in to the website and then visit havurahshalom.org/zoom or call the office for join info (503-248-4662). All are welcome.

Join your fellow Alter Rockers for happy hour at Noble Rot, 4th floor, 1111 E Burnside (on the east side) - beginning at 5:00 pm or whenever you can get there.
