Making Mensches Shabbat
[MOVED TO VIRTUAL ONLY]
Join Making Mensches for another queer, anti-zionist shabbat potluck dinner and ritual! This is a space for anti-zionist community to come together and observe ritual. We will share some shabbat prayers and songs together.
Children are welcome! We cannot provide childcare at this time.
Please read our event norms to determine if this space is for you.
Event will begin at 7pm EST on zoom.
Access:
Unfortunately, we do not receive funding and are working with the space that is generously provided to us for free. This space IS NOT wheelchair accessible to enter - there are two flights of stairs at the location. Whenever we receive funding, our first priority is a wheelchair accessible space. In the meantime, we always offer a hybrid option and host shabbat virtual bimonthly. The event is on the 2nd and 3rd floors. There are 19 steps with a railing to get to the 2nd floor. There are 17 additional steps with a railing to get to the 3rd floor.
COVID policy:
This is a mask mandatory event, as long as you are able to mask. Please make sure to test before the event. You will need to show a picture of your negative test for entry. You can find where to get free tests here: https://www.nyc.gov/site/doh/covid/covid-19-testing.page#:~:text=You%20can%20pick%20up%20free,Visit%20COVID.gov.
Please only join if you test negative. If you test positive, feel free to join us virtually instead if you're up for it. DM Making Mensches on IG or email us at makingmensches@gmail.com for the zoom link.
We keep us safe, thank you!
Food:
This is a potluck style event, so please remember to bring a dish so everyone can eat something. Some folks have asked what is needed, and we usually have ample desserts and breads, so actual food dishes are the most helpful. However, any contribution is welcome.
We will be eating in waves of 10-15 people in a space separate from the ritual area that will have air purifiers on. In order for the event to be masked and also for there to be food, this is the best option we have.
