Stepping Into Dinah’s Tent: A Sapphic Torah Study

Inspired by Midrash, the House of Dinah Sapphic Torah Study rewrites sacred text to claim space for sapphic women. This interactive text study is open to anyone passionate about creating a more inclusive Jewish narrative. You don’t need any specific educational background, knowledge of Hebrew, or to identify as sapphic yourself. What matters most is your openness to engage, question, and reimagine sacred Jewish stories. Join us for a laid-back, warm, come-as-you-are afternoon of learning and community building!

Light snacks (with kosher options available) will be served. If you have any questions or if the cost of this program poses a barrier, please reach out to Sonya at sweisburd@edcjcc.org.
