What can stones teach us about memory, resilience, and the stories we carry? Join us for an afternoon of creativity, learning, and connection as we explore the role of stones throughout Jewish tradition. Together, we’ll engage with Jewish texts and discussion that invite us to reflect on the ways physical objects can hold meaning, mark moments of transformation, and help us remember where we’ve been. After learning together, we’ll move into a hands-on rock painting experience, creating our own meaningful pieces inspired by the themes we explore. Whether you love creative projects, meaningful conversation, or simply gathering in community, this is an opportunity to slow down, reflect, and create something beautiful together. No experience necessary. Everyone is welcome. This gathering will take place in Montgomery County, with the specific location and additional details shared with registrants after the registration deadline. Sign Up by June 3 the Den Collective serves 20s, 30s, and 40s throughout the Greater Washington Area.

As we approach the summer solstice and settle into the warmth and fullness of the season, we’ll gather outdoors for an evening of mindfulness, reflection, and connection in community. Together, we’ll take time to slow down, breathe deeply, and explore what it means to move through this season with greater intentionality and presence. Through gentle conversation and moments of quiet reflection, we’ll create space to reconnect with ourselves, with each other, and with the rhythms of the natural world around us. Whether you’re seeking grounding, meaningful conversation, or simply an opportunity to pause and reset, this gathering offers a chance to step outside, unplug, and be nourished by community and the beauty of the season. No experience necessary. Everyone is welcome. This gathering will take place in DC. Specific meet-up location and additional details will be shared with registrants after the registration deadline.

Jewish tradition holds a long and rich history of sacred disagreement: of questioning, debating, challenging, and refining ideas in the pursuit of deeper understanding. In this gathering, we’ll explore what Judaism teaches about productive disagreement: the balance between conviction and humility, the importance of openness and restraint, and the moments when debate can lose its moral center. Together, we’ll engage with Jewish wisdom and meaningful conversation around how we navigate differences in our relationships, communities, and daily lives. How do we disagree without losing one another? What does it mean to sharpen each other thoughtfully and compassionately, rather than tear each other down? Whether you love spirited discussion or are simply curious about Jewish approaches to dialogue, disagreement, and growth, this gathering offers space for reflection, learning, and authentic conversation in community. No experience necessary. Everyone is welcome. This gathering will take place in Silver Spring, Maryland. Specific location and additional details will be shared with registrants after the registration deadline. Sign Up by June 24 the Den Collective serves 20s, 30s, and 40s throughout the Greater Washington Area.

Join us for a Shabbat Lunch + Learn gathering where we will explore stories of beauty, intimacy, and connection within Jewish tradition. Together, we’ll dive into teachings and legends surrounding Rabbi Yochanan, whose extraordinary beauty became the subject of fascination throughout the Talmud, and explore the deep bond he shared with his spiritual partner and closest companion. Were they simply dear friends and study partners, or could there have been something romantic to their connection? Through conversation, reflection, and shared learning, we’ll consider how queer readings can open new possibilities within Jewish tradition and help us encounter familiar stories in new and meaningful ways. We’ll gather over a relaxed, potluck-style Shabbat lunch, creating space for thoughtful discussion, curiosity, and connection in community. This gathering is open to those who identify as LGBTQIA+. No prior learning experience necessary. This gathering will take place in Northwest DC. Specific location and additional details will be shared with registrants after the registration deadline.
