We believe it’s not who you are but what you do.
If you want to do Jewish, c’mon in.

What do you get when you join The Kitchen?

You get to build something that matters.

As a member of The Kitchen, you’ll be part of building a trail-blazing Jewish place and have the knowledge that you are helping fund every program that we do. You’ll also get all of the following:

  • Tickets for Rosh Hashanah & Yom Kippur, allotment based on membership level, plus discounted passes for your friends & family for The Whole Megillah, Swagger Wagon & Double Trouble.

  • Our bread & butter – an allotment of comped Shabbat Dinner tickets based on membership and discounted prices for you (and anyone you register for) for all remaining dinners.

  • Access to Rabbi Noa Kushner for 1:1 meetings for all lifecycle events, from baby namings to b’nai mitzvahs to weddings to job loss (or hire) to end-of-life counseling, the rabbi has your back.*

  • All adult education courses & programs, like Torah Study on Shabbat mornings with Rabbi Noa Kushner, and Sephardi music study with Hazzan Asher Levy, are included in your membership.

  • Member-only events (Passover seders, Havdalah at the rabbi’s house) and priority to all other events

  • Knowledge that you’re helping to create a new, innovative Jewish space

But also, let’s state the obvious, you don’t have to join. We’re committed to helping you (or your people) whether you’re formally connected or not.

But you may choose to be a part of a Jewish organization that tries to tell the truth (even when it means losing funding), is open to all, and assumes that religious life is not only profound, it has political implications for our world right now.

Make no mistake, your support means we can try more new things and help the people who need help
