(New York Jewish Week) — Labor Day Weekend signals two things: The end of the summer and, for the Jewish community, the onset of the High Holidays.
On Rosh Hashanah, a two-day holiday that begins on the evening of Sept. 15, Jews usher in the New Year of 5784. Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, begins with the Kol Nidre service on the evening of Sept. 24 and continues through sundown on Sept. 25.
Egalitarian Sephardi and Mizrahi services
The Egalitarian Sephardi and Mizrahi Community of New York has organized services for Erev Rosh Hashanah, Kol Nidre and Neilah (Yom Kippur afternoon), which will take place in the social hall of Park Slope’s Congregation Beth Elohim. The services, which are sponsored by IfNotNow-BIJOCSM, Jewish Voice for Peace’s BIJOCSM Network, and JFREJ’s Mizrahi & Sephardi caucus, will be led by musician Laura Elkeslassy, a New York Jewish Week “36er” from 2022. There is a suggested ticket price of $36 per service. Learn more here. Elkeslassy will also host two workshops on Sept. 11 and 19 to teach Maghrebi music and High Holiday liturgy. Sign up here.
