Join us for an afternoon of activities, tasty seasonal treats (did someone say apples and honey?), music, meaning, and an opportunity to cast into the harbor what no longer serves you. A fun and communal way to usher in the High Holiday season, you’ll have everything you need (including free and designated parking!) to participate—at whatever level feels right to you.  

Tashlich, meaning to cast away, is a ritual associated with the High Holiday season that invites us to reflect on what no longer serves us and cast it away. In preparation for a new Jewish calendar year, this practice allows us to start the year with a little less weighing on our spirit. It may sound heavy, but if done right, Tashlich can be both refreshing and uplifting.  

There will be a brief program with story and song from 2:30 – 3:00 pm led by Rabbis Andy Gordon and Jessy Dressin. Great for people of all ages.  

Featuring tasty treats from the Charmery & Hon’s Honey and pop-ups from Inheritance Theater Project and the Macks Jewish Connection Network

The Tashlich Festival is free to attend, but registration is strongly encouraged. (And we can only let you know where and how to get free parking if you’re registered!)
