Selichot offers an inflection point as we prepare to enter the New Year and experience the Days of Awe. It’s a time to begin, or continue, contemplating the season’s Big Questions. Join for a screening of two episodes of the very Jewish and quirkily insightful animated sitcom Long Story Short, followed by discussion. Through recognizable rituals, the show invites us to consider not only what is unfolding in this family, but how their experiences of joy, sorrow, transition and growth might be mirrored in our lives. The evening concludes with the ritual changing of our Torah and Ark garments, song selections from the Selichot service, and the sounding of shofar.
