SUMMARY:Farewell to the Sukkah with GatherDC
DESCRIPTION:As the High Holidays come to a close\, we invite you to join GatherDC for one final gathering under the sukkah’s thatched roof. Rooted in the Jewish tradition of bidding farewell to the sukkah\, this is an opportunity to slow down\, savor the moment\, and reflect on what this new Jewish year might bring.\nThrough journaling and art-making\, we’ll explore where we’ve found peace\, protection\, and moments of joy over the past High Holiday season – and what learning we’d like to carry with us into the year ahead.\nWe’ll have the option to shake the Lulav (branches and palm fronds) and Etrog (citron) for the final time during the holiday\, as well as share light snacks and spend time in the shelter of the sukkah as we say “see you next year.”

SUMMARY:Commemorating 3rd Anniversary of 10/7 w/ American Middle East Press Association
DESCRIPTION:For one night only\, The American Middle East Press Association (AMEPA) invites community members to hear Israeli-American\, Gal Bukshpan\, recount his hair raising story of how he and his friends escaped the Nova music festival as Hamas terrorists attacked and rockets flew overhead. To help moderate the evening’s program we will be joined by Harris Faulkner\, 6-time Emmy award-winning news anchor and host of Fox News Channel shows—“The Faulkner Focus” and “Outnumbered” – The program will be taped live and will include a moderated interview with Mr. Bukshpan followed by an audience Q&A and chance to meet Ms. Faulkner.   \nAMEPA rarely opens its press events to non-journalists\, however we believe the event will allow audience members to bear witness and never forget the atrocities that took place on Oct. 7. To help spread the word we are relying on the support of local organizations and would be grateful if you please share the attached invite or photo in an email- blast or newsletter. Also\, please feel free to register! \nWe are excited about our upcoming program and hope you and others will join us for a memorable evening of reflection and remembrance. \n \nAccommodations: ADA Accessible Venue;Post-Event Recording \n \nOrganization: The American Middle East press Association \n \nLivestream or Virtual: No\, it’s not

SUMMARY:Moon by Moon: Integration of Spiritual Time with Adas Israel Congregation
DESCRIPTION:Jewish tradition holds some the world’s best-kept wellness secrets\, ancient practices that support our wholeness individually and in community.  \nPlease join in this collaborative experience as At The Well and the Wellness Center @ Adas partner to explore the wisdom of the lunar calendar through the sacred technology of Rosh Chodesh. The Hebrew Calendar invites each of us into cyclical time\, present-moment awareness\, embodiment\, and collective care. \nIn Cheshvan\, we enter a quieter\, more spacious season after the intensity and sacred busyness of Tishrei and the High Holiday cycle. The gatherings\, rituals\, reflection\, celebration\, and renewal of the previous month begin to settle\, creating room to absorb all that we have experienced. \nThis spaciousness offers an invitation to integrate. We can return to the intentions\, hopes\, and commitments we named for the year ahead and begin to ask what it means to actually live them — not only in moments of ceremony or inspiration\, but in the ordinary rhythms of our daily lives. Cheshvan reminds us that transformation is often sustained in quieter ways: through small choices\, repeated practices\, and the ways we care for ourselves and one another. \nWithout major holidays to structure the month\, Cheshvan can feel open and unhurried. That openness gives us space to listen more closely to what is taking root. What from Tishrei do we want to carry forward? What needs more time to settle? What might be asking for our attention now that the noise has softened? \nTogether\, we create space to ground\, reflect\, and reconnect with what matters most. In this circle\, we honor the transition from intention to practice\, gently exploring how the visions we hold for the year can begin to take shape in the lives we are already living. \nThis program will be facilitated by At The Well Founder &.CEO Sarah Waxman and Rabbi Anina Dassa. \n \nAccommodations: ADA Accessible Venue \n \nOrganization: Adas Israel Congregation \n \nLivestream or Virtual: No\, it’s not
