SHAVUOT CELEBRATION: In Honor of our Collective Literature and Cultural Offerings. Traditionally, this holiday commemorates the giving of the Torah on Mt. Sinai. As Humanistic Jews, we use this occasion to celebrate all of our cultural creativity.
A CELEBRATION OF MAURICE SENDAK: 2013-2014 Humanistic Jewish Role Model of the Year
A presentation on Maurice Sendak’s life and work will be led by TCC members Paula Grande and Middy Streeter.
The City Congregation holds Shabbat celebrations twice a month on Friday evenings at 7:30 PM at the 14th Street Y (344 East 14th Street) in Manhattan. Each Shabbat includes a 40-minute humanistic service and a presentation by a guest speaker or TCC members on a Jewish cultural topic or current issue, followed by a pot-luck dessert. Three times a year we gather at 6:30pm for a catered dinner before the service and program. Guests are always welcome. Childcare is available for children 11 and younger.
All dates and programs are subject to change. To confirm events and for more information, contact the office at 212-213-1002 or
