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.

We’ll be tying red threads on everyone’s left wrists for the season, too. It’s a kabbalistic tradition and we think it’s also a good reminder of what we’re all trying to do this time of year.

*There’s a custom to rise before dawn to recite these prayers which ask Heaven for compassion and help. In Sephardic traditions, Selichot is recited from the beginning of the month of Elul through Yom Kippur, 40 days, the same amount of time Moses spent on Mount Sinai.

Kitchen Social Club (KSC)
KSC is our community for people in their 20s + 30s. Join us to grab pizza and be together before Selichot. We’ll walk together afterward to join the rest of The Kitchen community for Havdalah & the Selichot service/concert. . If you have questions about KSC, email Kayla, our Youth & Young Adult Program Director, here.
