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!

We will be both in person and on Zoom so those of you who cannot join us in person can still participate in a meaningful way. We encourage you to invite friends and family to join you at our seder, whether you participate in person or on Zoom.
Come participate and revive your hopeful energies for the struggles ahead. For more information and to register, see below.
In addition to the traditional ritual foods for the seder, we will also provide a delicious catered vegetarian dinner, with gluten-free and nut-free options available.
There is limited in person space available, please register early to ensure your spot!
We are holding 8 in-person tickets available on a sliding scale for those for whom paying the full amount is not doable. To obtain a reduced price ticket for either in-person or on Zoom, please contact Austin at austin@beyttikkun.org.
** If you are able to donate more, we’d be most grateful. Our costs (the venue, food, staff, etc.) exceed the fees we are charging for the Seder. We are also using this Seder as an fundraiser to help cover our expenses for the remainder of the year before the High Holidays. If you can contribute double or triple the amount above, we’d be most grateful. Any donations above the amounts listed are tax deductible.
Once you register you will receive an email with the Zoom link. Please do not share that link with others.
We hope to see you there!
