Kitchen Escape – Member Retreat
We're heading to the mountains for an off–the–grid, 36 hours of shabbos goodness. Take a deep breath, relax, and dig deep into shabbat – this is going to be good. A shabbaton with The Kitchen is your path to an all – inclusive, weekend getaway escape. It's one part relaxation, one part Jewish, one part inspiration.
This year, we’re back at Camp Newman in the Sonoma County foothills for a weekend where we will learn, create, connect and play. You’ll also be getting some R&R with the brand new lodge rooms & revamped cabins. We'll celebrate Shabbat through programs that include activities for everyone (adults, kids, families), communal meals, and learning.
The Kitchen Escape is exclusively for Kitchen Members. Registration opens December 2024

Selichot Concert
One of the best ways to dig into the high holiday season is with joy, singing our hearts out for forgiveness.
Led by guest musicians Faisal Zedan (Percussion), Jim Grippo (Qanun), Ari Marcus (Ney – Arabic & Turkish Flute) Hazzan Asher Levy, Rabbi Noa Kushner, and the Kitchen davening team, we’ll chant our Selichot,* a cycle of piyyutim we sing only this time of year, and ask for mercy and forgiveness.
Think: lots of energy, forgiveness for all and ending with tea (recipe top-secret) and sweets from Loquat Bakery.
In partnership with JIMENA

Selichot Services
Jumping into the high holidays without any preparation is kind of like trying to run a marathon without exercising first. Instead, we recommend you join us for these three, weekly Selichot services.
Come and sing through the old melodies before the big, musically accompanied Selichot concert / service, and we promise by the time we’re singing on the high holidays, you’ll be warmed up and then some.
