Join us at Lakeside Pavillion in Druid Hill Park for a morning of activities, seasonal treats (did someone say apples and honey?), music, and the opportunity to cast into the water what no longer serves you. A fun and communal way to help celebrate the High Holiday season and enjoy some outside time with friends, old and new.
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. With each pebble we cast into the waters, we release that which we want to shed before Yom Kippur begins, and a new year is underway.
From 11 – 11:30 Rabbis Andy Gordon and Jessy Dressin will lead a brief program with story, song and guidance for how to take part in the tashlich ritual. Great for people of all ages.
This happening is free to attend, but we encourage registration. If you would like to contribute, a suggested donation between $18-36 is recommended at checkout.
