Head back to the corner of Sinai and Spadina for the renewed Downtown Tikkun Leil Shavuot: All-Night Jewish Learning Festival! We’ll be back in the building all night long, with a few hybrid options for viewers at home. This year’s program opens at 7 PM with a folk concert of “Songs from the Foot of the Mountain,” directed by Annie Matan. From 8:30 PM until Sunrise, we gather to learn in the community, with lots of choices of sessions — panels of rabbis, music and improv workshops, lectures, discussions, and more. And, as always, cheesecake!
Here are the fabulous offerings by DJC leadership and members:
8:30 – 9:30 PM:
