    Shoresh

    Shabbat, Feb 14th 10:00a to 11:30a
    Join us for our monthly Shoresh gatherig at JCOGS! Join us for a puppet show by Anna Sobel, founder of Talking Hands Theatre. Her show "Fairies of the Season" explores the changes our planet feels, and so, we also feel. Every season has unique qualities: the trees look different, different kinds of plants are growing, and people wear and do different things. In this magical show, set on a handmade dress that twirls as the year turns, each season has its own fairy that takes care of changing the natural world accordingly. We end with blessings over challah/grape juice followed by a lite nosh. All ages welcome!
