Kol Nidre, the evening that initiates Yom Kippur, is a highlight of the Sholem calendar. Informed by Jewish traditions in music and in spoken word, we reflect on our lives and the state of the world through a humanistic and progressive prism. A moving opportunity to renew ourselves for the upcoming year; to grieve our losses and enable our hopes.
The deadline to submit for the IN MEMORIAM slide show is Friday 10/4, end of day. We are unable to accept In Memoriam requests after that date.
YIZKER is free and names may be submitted electronically until Thursday, 10/10. You will also be able to submit Yizker names in person from approximately 6:30pm – 7:00pm on Friday, 10/11 at the Robert Frost Auditorium. Submitted names of loved ones who have passed during this year will be read from the podium during the observance.
