Mishkan Calendar

Why do the High Holidays even matter? Does prayer change the world? Do I believe in G-d? G-d as a King or Judge – does this metaphor work for me? What am I praying for? If I don’t know anything, how can I meaningfully participate? This is my first HighHo, is there anyone else like me? Great […]

High Holidays are nearly upon us and we need help organizing and stuffing Boarding Passes (aka tickets) for the 1000+ people who will be joining us at Get Higher. Are you in? There will be music, pizza, and good times for all. Drop in for 30 minutes or for an hour -- every pair of […]

A deep dive into one of the most powerful pieces of Jewish spiritual technology, the Tallit, not from a purely intellectual perspective, but BY MAKING ONE (or five!). Learn about the history of the Tallis and rock out to some tunes while making enough Tallitot to drape our community in, at, and after High Holidays. You […]

Rise and shine with Rabbis Lizzi, Lauren, and Jeff at the Mishkan Space for a family Shabbat experience! We'll start with a bagel brunch at 10am, and then sing, tell stories, and get jazzed for the holidays together with our whole Mishkan families community. All ages welcome.

On the Saturday night before High Holidays it's an ancient (or at least pretty old) custom to enter the week of high holidays with the music of the season. We'll do havdallah (send out Shabbat with light, spices and wine), and sit in circles and sing the night away, learning new tunes and singing the classics. First timers especially invited! […]

Come join Mishkan for our second trip to make food, play, stretch, meditate, and hang out on the block with MASK (Mothers Against Senseless Killing)! MASK holds a BBQ every night of the summer on their lot at 75th and Stewart for ~150 Englewood community members. MASK addresses violence by building joyful, beautiful community on […]

Our monthly new-moon circle, for those who identify as female, is a restorative and regenerative space to reflect and connect in sisterhood through ritual prayer, singing, and candle-lighting as well as light-hearted socializing over dinner and music. This month, Rosh Chodesh Tishrei (also known as Rosh Hashanah!) is a significant time for honest self-reflection on […]

Gather for an informal breakfast picnic on the beach, and tossing out the spiritual gunk from last year in the form of offering crumbs to the seagulls. We'll sing, learn, eat breakfast, and do tashlich, paving the way for a fresh new start in 5779! BYOB -- bring your own breakfast picnic (and some to […]
