Evenings of Jewish Chant in Vancouver

Bring your voice and be transported by the deep intention and inner experience on Sunday, Aug.31, at our monthly Evening of Jewish Chant. We'll be joined by master percussionist Russell Shumsky. 

You don't have to know Hebrew or be Jewish to participate in this beautiful practice.

Lorne Mallin hosts these warm and friendly monthly evenings. His teacher, Rabbi Shefa Gold, says that we can "enter through the door of a chant into the depths and vast expanse of the silence."

The practice of Jewish chanting is a vehicle for prayer, healing and connection. The chants are composed from a short phrase of sacred text with a beautiful melody. The most powerful moment of the chant happens in the silence that follows. The chant inclines the mind toward a state of consciousness that can be accessed in that moment after the chant.

WHERE: Sourcepoint, 3263 Heather St. between 16th and 17th Aves.  

WHEN: 7:30-9pm on the last Sunday of the month. Upcoming on Sept. 28.

ADMISSION: By donation, $5-$20.
