Sparks in the Darkness: Creative Exploration for Chanukah

In the growing darkness of Kislev, we turn toward the sparks within us, making space for creativity, connection, and the light we create together. Through the Jewish Studio Process, a unique methodology blending art therapy practices with a reimagined approach to Jewish learning and spirituality, we'll engage hands, heart, and mind to explore Chanukah's themes of light and resilience: what it takes to kindle a flame in the darkest time of year, and the wisdom held in both shadow and light. No art experience needed, and no particular Jewish background required, just a willingness to show up, make something, and see what sparks. We are so excited to have this program co-sponsored by our friends at NuRoots. This experience is part of NuRoots' Infinite Light festival and is for young adults ages 21-39.
