Pride Festival Tie Dye & Poster-Making
Join us for a vibrant afternoon of tie-dying our newly released J-Pride t-shirts and creating posters for the Pride Parade. Come express yourself, connect with community, and leave with something bold, beautiful, and uniquely yours.
LGBTQ+ Elders' Potluck
June is Pride Month and it feels meaningful to honor it by coming together over a shared meal and taking time to check in. We’ll gather to reconnect, reflect on what’s on our hearts, and deepen our sense of connection.
Please bring a dish to share, and note that Shir Tikvah is a nut-free space.
If you’re able, we would truly love for you to join us. You can RSVP here.
Shir Tikvah Office Closed: Juneteenth
While Shabbat Services will continue as usual, Shir Tikvah’s office staff will be off in observance of Juneteenth.
Masks Required Kabbalat Shabbat
AT THE HEART OF OUR COMMUNITY IS SONG, OUR SHIR TIKVAH, OUR SONG OF HOPE.
We raise our voices in song and gratitude, helping each other come to a place of rest and release each Shabbat. On Shabbat, all of creation rests. All who come to uplift the dignity and sanctity of all of creation are welcome in the Shir Tikvah sanctuary - comers of all faiths, identity, gender, race, ability, and familial structure.
KABBALAT SHABBAT
On Friday night, we gather in our multi-modal sanctuary to greet Shabbat with song, poetry, learning and connecting with one another. Led by our rabbi team and by an inspiring constellation of community leaders, our Kabbalat Shabbat (welcoming Shabbat) services are musical, accessible (closed captions and a full transcript of the service are available), warm and connective.
Join us in person at Shir Tikvah
Violins of Hope Concert
Violins of Hope is a project of concerts performed on instruments belonging to Jews before and during World War II. Shir Tikvah violinists will honor the legacy of these Jewish musicians with a recital of compositions, ranging from classical to klezmer. Join us to enjoy good music and witness the evolving stories of these instruments.

Fight like a Mensch with Tamar Ghidalia and Jessika Hepburn
Rooted in the 1,000-year-old Jewish tradition of Mussar (applied Jewish ethics) and Chassidut (applied Jewish mysticism), this curriculum invites small groups of people to engage deeply in a learning community over ten sessions. With the support of spiritual practice, participants cultivate the courage to confront authoritarianism, the patience to maintain broad coalitions despite political tensions, and the emotional capacity to process fear and heartbreak in healthy, sustaining ways.
This program is offered in partnership with Lippman Kanfer Foundation for Living Torah, and is part of an
effort to research best practices for sustaining self-led Jewish education groups. Your Involvement helps support this effort, strengthening Jewish communal learning spaces, and equipping participants with tools for nurturing democracy now and for the long haul.
The group will meet on the following days in 2026: Mondays 4/13-20-27, 5/4-11-18, 6/1-8-15 -22 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm CT.

This program is offered in partnership with Lippman Kanfer Foundation for Living Torah, and is part of an
effort to research best practices for sustaining self-led Jewish education groups. Your Involvement helps support this effort, strengthening Jewish communal learning spaces, and equipping participants with tools for nurturing democracy now and for the long haul.
The group will meet on the following days in 2026: Mondays 4/13-20-27, 5/4-11-18, 6/1-8-15 -22 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm CT.

AT THE HEART OF OUR COMMUNITY IS SONG, OUR SHIR TIKVAH, OUR SONG OF HOPE.
We raise our voices in song and gratitude, helping each other come to a place of rest and release each Shabbat. On Shabbat, all of creation rests. All who come to uplift the dignity and sanctity of all of creation are welcome in the Shir Tikvah sanctuary - comers of all faiths, identity, gender, race, ability, and familial structure.
KABBALAT SHABBAT
On Friday night, we gather in our multi-modal sanctuary to greet Shabbat with song, poetry, learning and connecting with one another. Led by our rabbi team and by an inspiring constellation of community leaders, our Kabbalat Shabbat (welcoming Shabbat) services are musical, accessible (closed captions and a full transcript of the service are available), warm and connective.

This five-session course offers a historical deep dive into the evolution of Zionism and the foundational events of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. We will examine the 19th-century intellectual shifts, colonial legacies, and competing national aspirations that form the background for the seemingly intractable conflict today. Eschewing a simplistic, black-and-white version of history, this course will emphasize nuance and an appreciation for the historical complexities of the conflict. The course will be rooted in Jewish history while sensitive to Palestinian narratives and the moral challenges of today.
Rather than formal lectures, we will look at poetry, speeches, newspaper accounts and essays to illuminate the historical story. Each session will focus on a particular era as we move from the late 19th century through the 1967 war.
*Class offered through Hebrew College, co-sponsored in Minnesota through Shir Tikvah, Mount Zion, and Beth Jacob Congregation.
Fight like a Mensch with Tamar Ghidalia and Jessika Hepburn
Rooted in the 1,000-year-old Jewish tradition of Mussar (applied Jewish ethics) and Chassidut (applied Jewish mysticism), this curriculum invites small groups of people to engage deeply in a learning community over ten sessions. With the support of spiritual practice, participants cultivate the courage to confront authoritarianism, the patience to maintain broad coalitions despite political tensions, and the emotional capacity to process fear and heartbreak in healthy, sustaining ways.
This program is offered in partnership with Lippman Kanfer Foundation for Living Torah, and is part of an
effort to research best practices for sustaining self-led Jewish education groups. Your Involvement helps support this effort, strengthening Jewish communal learning spaces, and equipping participants with tools for nurturing democracy now and for the long haul.
The group will meet on the following days in 2026: Mondays 4/13-20-27, 5/4-11-18, 6/1-8-15 -22 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm CT.

We meet for dinner on the first Monday of the month (with the exception of holiday Mondays, when we instead meet Tuesdays). The restaurants change each month and your dinner partners usually vary with your arrival time. An email invitation, with the location, is sent to everyone who has expressed interest in participating. For more information on the dinners or to join the email list, contact Marsha Eisenberg.

After these months of federal occupation, we’ll celebrate the giving of Torah and the resilience of our community with a tikkun leil Shavuot, a long night of communal dreaming, learning, song, and ritual. The story of Shavuot begins with lightning and thunder as the Israelites tremble in anticipation and fear at the base of Sinai. The story ends with the gift of Torah and a millennium-long relationship with text, community, and God. We will explore this trajectory from overwhelm to wisdom both by asking each other:
How does fear, awe and trembling move through our bodies and souls?
What covenants and commitments await us on the other side of this shaking?
How do we move from the motivation, inspiration, and connection formed in crisis to long term wisdom and partnership?
How do we learn to see past our own immediate needs in times of shaking to conceive of wider community safety and solidarity?
Weather permitting, our holiday will end with a sunrise Torah parade to Lake Harriet and a prayer service at the Lake. Between learning and song, we’ll snack on cheese cake and dance away sleep. Come for one session, or come all night. Learning sessions will occur both on zoom and in person. All are welcome. Masks are recommended for our in person learning.
The Tikkun is held in partnership with: Jewish Community Action, Minnesota Interfaith Power and Light, Shir Tikvah, J-Pride, Zuta, and Twin Cities Jewish Renewal Community.
