LAB/SHUL presents The Slow Down

Lab/Shul and House of Yes present an intimate evening of feasting, healing, meditation, experimental ritual, and a mystery guest musician.

Inspired by ancient mystical traditions and modern tools for mindfulness, The Slow Down is an invitation to shake off the workweek and float into the weekend. Check your phones, shoes, and jobs at the door. All are welcome.

Our ritual will be led by members of Lab/Shul's Ritual Team - Ezra Bookman (Artistic Director), Shira Kline (Director of Worship), and Rabbi Emily Cohen + guest poets, embodied release specialists, and of course our mystery musician.
