High Holy Days - Shofar with apples, honey, pomegranate

At WES, we celebrate Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur with as much creativity and contemplation as we do with all of our programming! The High Holy Days offer some of the most powerful moments of the year to reflect, learn, and grow together as a community. 

Our services for the Days of Awe feature original liturgical and exegetical compositions by WES members, powerful music and singing, and meditation.   Please take a look at our Interpretive Liturgy for the High Holy Days

 

High Holy Days tickets for each registered member are included in WES Membership.  Additional guest tickets may be purchased by members. We welcome non-members, who may purchase tickets for both adult services and children's JFLL programming.

Our services take place in-person and are also available via Zoom to ticket holders. 

All High Holy Days celebrations include JFLL (Jewish Family Life & Learning) programming for families and children.

Selichot (the week before Rosh Hashanah) and Shabbat Shuva (the Shabbat between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur) services  do not require tickets.

If you have questions or special needs, please contact Joan Erber, Synagogue Administrator, by phone at 212-579-0777, ext 4220, or admin [at] westendsynagogue.org (email).
