    Simpson-Hamline United Methodist Church 4501 16th St NW #4501 Washington, DC 20011 , United States

    Join friends at GatherDC & Rodef 2100 for this special Rosh Hashanah ritual!

    We'll be gathering together for tashlich (i.e. casting away), a cathartic tradition for the Jewish New Year in which we toss pieces of old bread (or pebbles, leaves, sticks, etc.) into a body of water to symbolically cast away regrets and disappointments from the past year.

    GatherDC and Rodef 2100 will provide the materials - just bring yourself! We look forward to coming together for this special tradition.

    Where: An accessible waterfront location in Arlington. The exact location will be shared with attendees.

    What to expect: Join other Jewish 20s & 30s for ritual, reflection, and meaning-making as we head into the new year.

    From 6:00-6:30 there will be pizza provided. BYOsnacks and picnic blanket!

    Cost: Free!
