Thinking about hosting a Shabbat dinner but not sure where to start? Join us for Hosting Shabbat 101, a relaxed and informative session designed to give you the tools and confidence to create a meaningful and welcoming Friday night experience in your home.

We’ll cover:

  • The flow of a traditional Shabbat dinner
  • Common rituals, blessings and their meanings
  • How to adapt rituals in inclusive or interfaith settings
  • Ideas for menus, music, and conversation

This class is open to everyone – you don’t have to be Jewish to attend or host. Whether it’s your first time lighting Shabbat candles or you’re looking for new inspiration, this is a great place to start.

Highly recommended for hosts participating in the Shabbat in Color: Shared Tables event.

This is a member-exclusive event.
(Admission included with your JCC membership)
