Shaboot Camp

Do you…

• Enjoy Shabbat when you’re invited into it — but feel a little intimidated by doing it on your own?
• Feel drawn to Jewish tradition, heritage, or ritual, but wish there were a place to experience it in a way that actually feels alive and human?
• Crave a space where learning, Jewish identity, and real community fit together — without pressure, performance, or pretense?

Then Shaboot Camp is for you.

Shaboot Camp is for people who want to deepen their connection to Shabbat and Jewish life in a warm, accessible way. It’s a one-night immersive experience where we slow down, learn what Shabbat actually is and why it exists, and then build it together through lighting candles, setting the table, singing, eating, and resting as a group.

Doors open at 6:30pm and we will come together and begin at 7:00pm

Our structure for the evening will be:

• 7-7:30pm: What is Shabbat and why do we do it?
• 7:30-8pm: The materials/setup needed to make the night special, why we use them & what they represent
• 8-8:30pm: The run of show so you know exactly how to do the rituals and recite the blessings yourself
• 8:30-10pm: Shabbat dinner—let’s tie it all together and bask in the glow of Shabbat!

No Hebrew required. No prior knowledge expected. Just curiosity, presence, and a willingness to step out of the week and into something meaningful.
