Pre- Rosh Hodesh Iyar with Rachel Kann

Sunday, April 16th 4:30pm PST

​

Join Kohenet Rachel Kann of Realize Paradise for a guided writing journey under the new moon.

Come celebrate

as we consider the New Moon through the lens of Jewish spirituality and context 

to see what energies it has to reveal to us.

We will be inspired by poetry from some of the all-time greats and take a creative journey—you are welcome to work in poetry, drawing, or any medium that you feel inclined toward. Free and open to all interested.
