SUMMARY:DC Tikkun Circle: New Year for Animals
DESCRIPTION:Join the DC Tikkun Circle for a special community dinner celebrating the New Year for Animals\, one of the four Jewish New Years. \nWhile this little known Jewish holiday has ancient roots and offers a timely opportunity to reflect on our relationship with animals today.
