Shir Ruach - Turning your community into singers
Sunday May 18, 2025 4:00pm - 4:45pm EDT
Here’s a way to get a full room singing in harmony - with eyes up, learning parts by ear in under 20 minutes. Ideal for multigenerational or interfaith groups— because the goal is to dissolve boundaries and create camaraderie.  You’ll be learning it by doing it, singing and moving!

Songs of Longing (Shir Ta'ev) - Singing Creation (Bereshit) Into the Void
Monday May 19, 2025 1:30pm - 2:15pm EDT
We live in a world that seems ever more chaotic and in which the cord connecting the heavens and earth seems ever more frayed. Join educator Rabbi-Cantor Michael McCloskey as we explore Jewish cosmic origin myths and the central role of music and phonation in reattaching (or strengthening) this “cord” with a “chord”. Moreover, we’ll examine and discuss the ways in which we k’ley kodesh reenact these cosmogonies liturgically, ritually, and pastorally, bringing and channeling order, flow, catharsis, and Inspiration into our communities.

Cantors' Creations: "Every Jewish Voice has a Soul"
Thursday May 22, 2025 9:45am - 11:00am EDT
Join us for an unforgettable final morning of soul-stirring expression at our Cantorial Convention Coffeehouse/Open Mic program. In the warm, welcoming glow of candlelight and coffee, we’ll gather as colleagues and kindred spirits to share more than just melodies—we’ll share our hearts.

This is a space for vulnerability, creativity, and connection. Whether through original songs, spontaneous harmonies, spoken word, or storytelling, this is your chance to step up to the mic and let your soul speak. Bring a poem that’s been sitting in your journal, a niggun that’s been echoing in your heart, or a piece of Torah that’s been longing to be shared.

In this sacred, supportive space, we’ll celebrate not just polished performance, but raw authenticity. We’ll bear witness to one another’s stories, struggles, laughter, and longing—expressed through the powerful tools we as cantors know best: voice, language, and presence.

Come with a piece to share, or come to listen and be moved. The coffee is hot, the room is full of ruach, and your voice is welcome here.
