Through music and fire, come mark the 33rd day of the Omer, our seven week journey towards revelation at Mount Sinai. In the light of the flames we will learn deep teachings of this holiday through stories, songs and holy ritual, tending the fire of the Atlanta Jewish community.
5:00-6:00 Circle Up! A friendly family friendly interactive show with song, learning and dance co-led by Michael Levine and Reuben Haller. We welcome kids of all ages.
BYO Picnic at the LandTrust ~ hang and explore the landtrust with your friends and family! There are picnic tables and fresh water available for your BYO picnic. There are also a bunch of restaurants on Clifton at Mclendon in walking distance.
7:30 Lag Ba’Omer Community Concert featuring local musicians and teachers: Ori Salzburg, Rabbi Sam Blustin, Gayanne Guerin, Rabbi Ariel Root Wolpe, Reuben Haller and McKenzie Wren.
Lag Ba’Omer is a mystical holiday connected to the counting of the Omer, a Kabbalist practice which marks the 49 days between Passover and Shavuot. This period invites us to explore the building blocks of life, like lovingkindness, strength, and harmony, and reflect on how they manifest in our own worlds. It is a time to gather our wider communities together as we recount our ancestors moving out of bondage and learning to live as a free, interconnected people.
