Open House • Garden Party • Day of Learning
On Sunday, June 1, join us for a taste of what makes Third Space so special. It’s a party! There will be plenty of good food and good company and—if the weather cooperates—a chance to schmooze (chat) in the sunshine. You’ll also have a whole menu of opportunities for learning—whether through play, text study, conversation or all of the above.
You’ll be invited to join us for any or all that appeal:
Have a nosh (snack).
Meet new friends or connect with old ones (or both!).
Tour our hundred-year-old building, with a few new touches.
Learn something new.
Enjoy a refreshing beverage (both alcoholic and non).
Plant a seed (literal or figurative).
“Shop” the Judaica & Book Swap.
Stay for an hour or stay for the day—
we can’t wait to welcome you to Third Space!
Local rabbis and teachers will offer sessions throughout the building and throughout the day, all related to the theme: 10 Sacred Ideas For Right Now. (Psst…Right Now means it applies to YOU! You belong.)
The day culminates with Rabbi Jessy in conversation with this year’s Taste of Third Space scholar in residence: Laynie Soloman.
Laynie is a teacher and Torah-lover who seeks to uplift the piously irreverent, queer, and subversive spirit of rabbinic text and theology.
When you join us, you’ll have the chance to think about the nature of wisdom, who and what counts, and how we can and must co-create a world shaped by our needs and informed by the wisdom of Jewish text and tradition.
* Do you have Judaica that needs a new home? Maybe a favorite Jewish book that is ready to find its place on someone else’s shelf? Contribute to our Judaica & Book Swap. We will be collecting items between now and June 1, when those who have Judaica and book needs can browse—and take home!—the swap offerings. To offer Judaica or books, please bring no more than one bankers’ box worth to Third Space (2001 Liberty Heights Ave. Our front door faces Holmes Avenue, under the black awning) on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday between 10 am and 2 pm. Ring the doorbell when you arrive and a Third Space staff member will meet you at the door! Please do not leave boxes at our entrance.
