SUMMARY:Courageous Conversations: Visionary x Partners Community Salon
DESCRIPTION:Courageous Conversations:\nVisionary x Partners Community Salon\nDecember 16\, 2025\n7–9pm ET\nOnline*\nAvailable to Partners Only\n(This event is only available for partners. Not a partner yet? It’s easy to join. Learn more about our flexible options here.) \nEach month\, Lab/Shul’s Visionary Salon gathers a circle of Visionary Partners around one timely\, soul-stirring question. For Hanukkah – and as a continuation of the brave conversations we began on Kol Nidre – we’re opening this month’s Salon to all Partners. This gathering offers a space to spark hope and a first glimpse of our returning Courageous Conversations 2026 cohort – a community experience rooted in empathy\, dialogue\, and deep listening that has supported and sustained us in recent years. \nFacilitated in person by Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie and online by Melissa Shaw\, this Salon welcomes anyone ready to listen deeply\, speak thoughtfully\, and sit with complexity in community. \nOur Courageous Conversations framework draws on years of Lab/Shul practice: professionally guided dialogue\, a blend of large talking circle and small group formats\, this series nurtures understanding\, empathy\, and essential communication skills while embracing the diverse perspectives\, beliefs\, and experiences that shape our collective fabric. Each session offers a supportive space for thoughtful discussion\, equipping participants with tools to navigate conversations across disagreement with openness and respect. \n*Zoom information shared upon registration. \nThe virtual program is offered to partners only with a suggested donation of $18. Give what feels right—more if you can support others\, less if needed. Your presence is what matters most. \nQuestions? Reach out to sylvie@labshul.org. \nREGISTRATION>>

SUMMARY:Secret Seven
DESCRIPTION:Secret Seven\nExplore the Essential Symbols of Jewish Life\nWhat are the most critical must-have Jewish symbolic objects?  \n\nFor generations\, across continents\, Jews have adapted to shifting conditions and climates\, civilizations and cultures. Over time\, essential objects and symbols evolved to define the unique Judaic contribution to the celebration of time and space\, the pursuit of justice and the sacred secrets of the soul. Join Rabbi Amichai for a seven session series\, exploring the essential symbolic objects that offer functional purpose and mythic meaning\, as portals for personal growth and communal connection.  \nThe Seven symbols offered in this course are not the definitive ones\, but they are household objects – crafted as stories/teachers/concepts at the core of Jewish Life. We will explore them with a post-patriarchal and critical lens\, to better understand our rethinking of sacred time and space\, our embodied divinity\, beyond binaries and genders\, the evolution of god and the construction of language\, the political creation of chosen-ness and the critical obligation towards the wellbeing of others.  \n  \nFor the final class\, Rabbi Amichai will be in conversation with Tobi Kahn about his Tzedek Box. You don’t want to miss this deep exploration about artistry and the ritual objects that make Jewish life special. \nTime & Location\nSessions will begin on Monday\, October 25th and continue weekly on Monday evenings from 6:30pm-8:30pm EDT. All sessions will be held on Zoom. \nCourse Fees\nSingle Class – $36 non partners / $18 partners\nAll Seven Classes – $215 non partners / $110 partners \nPlease do not hesitate to reach out to marijke@labshul.org if you are in need of financial assistance. No one will be turned away for lack of funds. \nDates & Subjects\nOct 25 – Mezuzah: Why and How We Mark Our Threshold\nNov 1 – Tisch: From Temple to Table\nNov 8 – Tallit: The Semitic Second Skin\nNov 15 – Luach: Secrets of the Lunar Calendar\nNov 22 – Magen David: What’s the Story of the Six Pointed Star?\nNov 29 (Hanukkah) – Menorah: Why Fire is the Heart and Hearth of Jewish Time\nDec 6 – Keep the Change: Thinking outside the Charity Box with Tobi Kahn \n  \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Secret Seven
DESCRIPTION:Secret Seven\nExplore the Essential Symbols of Jewish Life\nWhat are the most critical must-have Jewish symbolic objects?  \n\nFor generations\, across continents\, Jews have adapted to shifting conditions and climates\, civilizations and cultures. Over time\, essential objects and symbols evolved to define the unique Judaic contribution to the celebration of time and space\, the pursuit of justice and the sacred secrets of the soul. Join Rabbi Amichai for a seven session series\, exploring the essential symbolic objects that offer functional purpose and mythic meaning\, as portals for personal growth and communal connection.  \nThe Seven symbols offered in this course are not the definitive ones\, but they are household objects – crafted as stories/teachers/concepts at the core of Jewish Life. We will explore them with a post-patriarchal and critical lens\, to better understand our rethinking of sacred time and space\, our embodied divinity\, beyond binaries and genders\, the evolution of god and the construction of language\, the political creation of chosen-ness and the critical obligation towards the wellbeing of others.  \n  \nFor the final class\, Rabbi Amichai will be in conversation with Tobi Kahn about his Tzedek Box. You don’t want to miss this deep exploration about artistry and the ritual objects that make Jewish life special. \nTime & Location\nSessions will begin on Monday\, October 25th and continue weekly on Monday evenings from 6:30pm-8:30pm EDT. All sessions will be held on Zoom. \nCourse Fees\nSingle Class – $36 non partners / $18 partners\nAll Seven Classes – $215 non partners / $110 partners \nPlease do not hesitate to reach out to marijke@labshul.org if you are in need of financial assistance. No one will be turned away for lack of funds. \nDates & Subjects\nOct 25 – Mezuzah: Why and How We Mark Our Threshold\nNov 1 – Tisch: From Temple to Table\nNov 8 – Tallit: The Semitic Second Skin\nNov 15 – Luach: Secrets of the Lunar Calendar\nNov 22 – Magen David: What’s the Story of the Six Pointed Star?\nNov 29 (Hanukkah) – Menorah: Why Fire is the Heart and Hearth of Jewish Time\nDec 6 – Keep the Change: Thinking outside the Charity Box with Tobi Kahn \n  \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Secret Seven
DESCRIPTION:Secret Seven\nExplore the Essential Symbols of Jewish Life\nWhat are the most critical must-have Jewish symbolic objects?  \n\nFor generations\, across continents\, Jews have adapted to shifting conditions and climates\, civilizations and cultures. Over time\, essential objects and symbols evolved to define the unique Judaic contribution to the celebration of time and space\, the pursuit of justice and the sacred secrets of the soul. Join Rabbi Amichai for a seven session series\, exploring the essential symbolic objects that offer functional purpose and mythic meaning\, as portals for personal growth and communal connection.  \nThe Seven symbols offered in this course are not the definitive ones\, but they are household objects – crafted as stories/teachers/concepts at the core of Jewish Life. We will explore them with a post-patriarchal and critical lens\, to better understand our rethinking of sacred time and space\, our embodied divinity\, beyond binaries and genders\, the evolution of god and the construction of language\, the political creation of chosen-ness and the critical obligation towards the wellbeing of others.  \n  \nFor the final class\, Rabbi Amichai will be in conversation with Tobi Kahn about his Tzedek Box. You don’t want to miss this deep exploration about artistry and the ritual objects that make Jewish life special. \nTime & Location\nSessions will begin on Monday\, October 25th and continue weekly on Monday evenings from 6:30pm-8:30pm EDT.
