Following a fantastic Tikkun Leyl Shavuot - A Night of Learning and Rejoicing last year, we are offering our Second Annual
תִּקוּן לֵיל שֲבֻעוֹת Tikkun Leyl Shavuot
as the holiday begins Sunday evening, May 16.
We will begin with the Festival Maariv Service which includes Confirmation at 7:00 -8:00pm.
The Tikkun begins at 8:10 with my Introduction. I will be introducing our Keynote Presenter, Arlene Spector who is a Ketubah Artist and Calligrapher. The mystics say on Shavuot we celebrate the marriage of G-d and Israel with the Torah as the Ketubah. A perfect time to learn a bit about the history, the meaning and beauty of the Marriage Ketubah from someone who creates them. And so at
8:20 - to 8:50pm, we will be learning with Ketubah Artist Arlene Spector.
8:50-8:55pm
