The Empty Chair

  • Wednesday, March 25, 2026
  • 7-8:30pm

The Empty Chair is a virtual workshop for those mourning the death of a loved one during Passover. Holidays can make a loved one's absence, no matter how long they've been gone, feel especially present.

Please join us for a meaningful text study, gentle guidance and reflection on navigating loss during the Passover season, and supportive conversation about making space for remembrance, honoring traditions, and finding moments of comfort and connection at the Seder table and beyond.
