Nani Vazana: World's 1st Millennial Ladino Songwriter
Breathing new life into the ancient Spanish-Jewish language, Nani creates a bridge between the past and future with socially relevant lyrics celebrating migration, gender, and female empowerment.
As a singer, composer, trombonist and pianist, her solo show invites the listeners into a world that is both timeless and modern. Her songs intertwine stories of Nani’s grandmother with present-day narratives, blending the sounds and smells of the marketplaces with raw flamenco-inspired vocals, soulful trombone harmonies, and heart-breaking piano. All this is topped off with electronic tracks from her laptop, creating an immersive elemental soundscape. This show is being toured in venues up to 600 capacity in Europe, USA and Canada.

Docu-film: There is Another Way (2025, 67 min), directed by Stephen Apkon
December 6 at 1:00pm at The Guild Cinema
Combatants for Peace, nominated for two Nobel Peace Prizes, is a bi-national group of former enemy combatants - Israelis and Palestinians - working together during an ongoing armed conflict. Faced with the devastation and escalating violence of October 7th and the war in Gaza, the very core of the movement must face great challenges and show that there is another way. The first question they have to face is their own belief… is this possible? *thereisanotherwayfilm.com

The liturgy of Shabbat morning is arranged thematically to create a holistic experience focused on cherished values. Often we get lost in the wordiness and weightiness of rabbinic prayer and forget the beauty of the journey through embodied expressions like song and dance.

If you have a ritual object, photo, prayer book, tallit or piece of art that represents the Sabbath and/or Jewish identity in your life, please bring to place on the altar we will create dedicated to Shabbat.

Docu-film: Ashkenaz (2007, 72 min), directed by Rachel Leah Jones
September 27 at 4:00pm at Congregation Nahalat Shalom
While Ashkenazi Jews (of European descent) present as the social and cultural norm within Israeli society, they don’t necessarily see or think of themselves in racial or ethnic terms because by now, "aren't we all Israeli?" Yiddish has been replaced with Hebrew, exile with occupation, the shtetl with the kibbutz. But what are the views of the Mizrahim (Jews of North African and Middle Eastern descent)? How do they see their place in the remade Jewish society of Israel?
Experience the Shabbat Shuva that is part of the High Holy Days with the Sefardic Community. A program of Casa Sefarad, we will explore themes of the reclamation of erased histories of the Sefardim of New Mexico and share visions of illumination in a time of darkness. All are welcome!

Please join Sofie Shefia as we welcome Shabbat.
With Hebrew chants from R. Shefa Gold, we’ll create a calming, uplifting and reflective experience as we gather ourselves from the week.
We will observe the candle lighting & blessing, healing prayers and mourners Kaddish, as well as Kiddush and hamotzi (challah) afterwards.
