Pop-Up Jewish Gatherings & Celebrations

At times, Rabbi Jerid offers pop-up Jewish gatherings rooted in tradition and shaped by the people who gather. These experiences are designed to create connection, reflection, and shared meaning—without membership, pressure, or expectation.

Pop-up gatherings are intentionally small, relational, and responsive to context. They may take place in homes, community spaces, outdoor settings, or other meaningful locations, depending on the moment and the people involved.

These gatherings may include:

• Shabbat gatherings

• High Holy Day celebrations

• Holiday observances such as Hanukkah, Purim, and other moments on the Jewish calendar

They are welcoming to Jews of all backgrounds, including those without synagogue affiliation, those exploring their relationship to Jewish life, and those with a secular or questioning orientation.

Each gathering is shaped collaboratively, honoring both Jewish tradition and the lived experiences of those present. The goal is not performance or obligation, but presence—creating space for community, conversation, ritual, and meaning to emerge naturally.

If you are interested in learning about upcoming gatherings, hosting one, or exploring what might be possible in your home or community, you are warmly invited to reach out.
