Liberation Seder 2025

“Thank you SO very much for Beyt Tikkun’s beautiful, rich, deeply relevant, moving seder. You so admirably infused all the seder’s rituals with a Tikkun perspective that really brought to life the message [of tikkun] for us at this time, in this day, highlighting our responsibility to continue to work towards the liberation of us all. Bravo and Thank you🙏🌹!!!” – Julie Oxenberg

We are excited to invite you to join Rabbi Cat Zavis, Musical Director Ami Goodman, and the Beyt Tikkun Community for our Liberation Seder

WHEN: Sunday, April 13th, 2025 – 5:00pm (PDT) (We will begin the online portion at 5:30pm PDT / 8:30pm EDT)

WHERE: Hybrid – On Zoom and in Person in Berkeley, CA (In person accessibility below)

Our Passover community seders have often been a spiritual high point for many of our attendees. They demonstrate how one can be deeply spiritual and also deeply committed to healing and transforming the world (tikkun olam). This Seder is not just for Jews, but for everyone who wishes to recommit to the struggles for liberation and participate in a Jewish ritual that is joyous, politically progressive, environmentally conscious, and spiritually meaningful.

Our Beyt Tikkun community Liberation Seder brings in creative elements including exercises, small group discussions, guided visualizations, song, and dance. We will have a liberation altar(s) to honor and uplift liberation struggles throughout history and in the present. You are invited to bring items to add to the altar. We will share more information about the altars closer to the event. All ages are welcome!

“It is the first Seder I attended where I feel the true spirit of Passover – liberation of all peoples (and you added in care for the planet also). In the past I had to stop myself from saying ‘Liberation for everyone except for Palestinians’. So thank you for a thoroughly liberating, uplifting event, with incredible food and music. You are who I want to spend Passover with :)”
