High Holy Days at Mishkon
The High Holy Days are a period of personal and collective renewal. We gather to reflect on our lives and the directions we’re headed, both personally and as a people. Enveloped in music, thoughtful spiritual direction, prayer, and the warmth of our broad and diverse community, you will be able to experience your process of renewal, inspiration, and prayer for a sweet New Year!
Membership
One of the great benefits of being a member of our Mishkon community is experiencing what it is to be a part of something bigger than we are. When it is time to celebrate, find support and healing, seek guidance, or turn to nourishing friendship, sharing with this special community adds meaning and substance to our lives.
The Preschool at Mishkon
At The Preschool at Mishkon, we believe that learning should be a joyful adventure, filled with laughter, exploration, and meaningful connections. Our play-based approach nurtures the social and emotional growth of each child, allowing them to flourish in a supportive and engaging environment.

Baby & Me Fridays
Sometimes referred to as “baby and me,” this sensory workshop is a bonding, interactive experience for walking babies (ages 1-3 yrs) and their caregivers. Make a mess through sensory exploration and tactile art, develop early motor skills, and be inspired to encourage creativity at home.
