Join the JVL South Bay Tikkun Circle to mark the beginning of the Hebrew month of Av centered on community, reflection, and renewal through a shared plant based potluck dinner.

The month of Av holds both sorrow and the possibility of healing. It is a month that asks us to acknowledge what is broken in our world while also turning toward what can be repaired, rebuilt, and renewed.

Seeds of Renewal is an invitation to do that work together, through food, conversation, Jewish wisdom, and community.
