Events and Gatherings
We host a wide variety of events and gatherings, from a Rosh Hashanah family service in Prospect Park, to Friday night Shabbat dinners, to our spring Purim carnival…. and everything in between! We also gather for service learning projects, cultural activities (Jewish walking tours, museum tours), and lectures. Our gatherings take place in all six neighborhoods where we offer Fig Tree classes, throughout NYC. Fig Tree gatherings are open to registered families, and we do not post our event schedule publicly.
