New Year Greetings
This year's High Holy Day celebration will be like no other. While we won't gather on the steps of Ethical Culture or outside the Habonim shul building to wish each other L'Shana Tovah/Happy New Year or Tzom Kal/Easy and Meaningful Fast, we can still offer greetings to one another for the New Year. Submit your greeting here for inclusion in our Kol Nidre services. DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS: Wednesday, September 9.
Sound the Horn!
Sound the shofar and make your voice heard this Rosh Hashanah! Upload a 10-60 second video blowing shofar here and respond to one of the prompts. No shofar? NO PROBLEM!! Be the shofar and submit your video responding to one of the prompts for the new year. DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS: Thursday, September 3.
