• Parent-Tot Class – Mondays, 9:00 – 11:00am (not held Oct. 14 & 21)
  Open to the public, this FREE weekly class for children up to 24-months in age and their parent(s) is a great way to meet other parents, exchange experiences, and provide an opportunity for the children to play together and engage in age-appropriate activities. We also read a book from PJ Library twice a month. Facilitator Ally Ross brings her 16-month-old daughter, Haley as her special “helper.” Various experts from different fields of child development and child-care will visit occasionally to share their expertise and provide opportunities for discussions. Feel free to bring your friends; it’s open to everyone! (PLEASE NOTE: We have a mandatory vaccination policy.) For more information, contact Nancy Auslander.

• “Shabbat Under the Stars” Service, 5:45pm; held on the Rabbi Arthur Oleisky Courtyard

• Shabbat’s Cool, 9:00am
  This service, led by and for kids of all ages, includes the reading and creative exploration of Torah.

All families are welcome. There is a parallel learning session for parents at 9:30-10:15am. For more information, contact Rabbi Barkan.
