Tue, May 18 at 10 pm - Wed, May 19 at 5 am (Doors open at 9:15 pm)
Join us for the Alma Tikkun Leil Shavuot at the JCC, the Upper West Side’s most spectacular holiday celebration, an updated version of the ancient festival of Shavuot, when the ancient Israelites stayed awake all night at Sinai anticipating the revelation. We will again offer a variety of traditional and innovative programs, including study, film, music, dance, yoga, meditation, cheesecake, and more, throughout the building, throughout the night, and into the early morning. Be part of the communal happening; come for an hour or seven!
We are pleased to announce the following presenters and programs for the tikkun on Tuesday, May 18th.
