queer text study
Queer text study is a brainchild of LGBTQ+ at the J envisioning a space to connect our community to text in an accessible, supportive and open way. Each month, we’ll join with a LGBTQ+ Jewish educator as we dive in together to study texts connected to each Hebrew month. This month we’re excited to partner with the newly launched HaMakom out of Vancouver!
For our inaugural session, we’ll be learning with Cantor Shira Stanford Asiyo, founder of HaMakom.
Registration through the Amilia. Suggested donation of $10 to support our facilitator, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds.
