Every 1st/3rd Tuesday at 6:30 pm!
By and for LGBTQ+ Jews, Queer Torah study is a bimonthly opportunity to fulfill the mitzvah of studying Torah as we delve for queer meaning - both ancient and new. Drawing from variety of traditional and modern sources for guidance - including Svara, Beit Toratah, Joy Ladin, Noam Sienna, Abby Chava Stein, and more - we explore, discuss, and learn together from our traditional texts in a fun, conversation-oriented environment.
Some Guidelines For Attendees:
- We discourage those considering conversion from attending before accessing CST resources for integrating into our Jewish community. QTS is best suited for those with previous Jewish experience.
- We advise those new to Judaism in our space to spend more time listening and asking questions until they become more integrated into our community.
- Bring one guest at a time.
All are welcome.
Thanks to our members who make it possible.
