Location

Location information will be shared after registration. All services will take place in a local community space in Washington Heights.

Donations

We are asking for donations of $36 per attendee to cover estimated costs of running services.

All are welcome regardless of your ability to contribute financially. 

Any donation, no matter how small, is helpful to sustain this minyan. If you are able to contribute more, we are very grateful!

All money that we raise above what we need to organize High Holidays services will be donated to Dahnoun Mutual Aid & NYC Love Kitchen.

Masking Policy

We require high-grade masking during services!

The purpose is to create a davening space that is accessible for those at higher risk of complicated COVID-19 outcomes, as well as safer for all wanting to reduce respiratory infection risk. Thank you for collectively making this possible!

  • All adult attendees should wear a well fitted, high filtration mask like the certified KN95, KF95, N95 masks.
  • There will be extra high-grade masks and COVID-19 rapid tests available in the space.
  • Youth under the age of 13 may wear a surgical style face mask if needed.
  • Anyone old enough to be able to take on/off their mask independently is expected to wear a mask.
  • With children who can wear a mask, we have compassion and understanding that guardians/all adults will do their best to remind kids to wear their masks when in the davening space but that inevitably some kids will challenge that- which is developmentally very understandable. Please help us collectively support this need for both flexibility and structure with kids’ masking habits.
  • It is perfectly ok to temporarily remove one’s mask to have a snack and sips of fluids throughout davening while remaining in the shared space. It is also perfectly ok to intake your snack elsewhere. If you plan to remove your mask for this manner, please be sure to take a COVID-19 rapid test before coming to services!
  • If you plan to attend Break Fast, please be sure to take a COVID-19 rapid test before arriving.
