Nehirim's Queer Shabbaton October 18, 2007

The Queer Shabbaton is an urban retreat of culture, creativity, and community for GLBT Jews of all ages, religious stripes, and political affiliations. This is a Shabbaton like you've never experienced before, a weekend of:
- Noncoercive, alternative community for queer Jews
- Workshops and presentations by some of today's leading scholars & artists on queerness and Jewishness
- Programs and pricing that ensure that everyone is included, with full scholarships for students
- A wide range of spiritual options, from yoga to traditional davening, meditation to
- Films, music, media, lots of good food -- and time to go out and enjoy NYC

The Queer Shabbaton represents a new kind of programming for Nehirim, and, we hope, the first of many such weekends. It is based on the Queer Shabbaton Amsterdam, a unique forum for community and discussion, which for the last three years has brought together Jews from all over the world for a weekend of consciousness-raising workshops, concerts, services (traditional, alternative, and non-religious), and lots of time to connect.
