Kol Nidre Observance – A Humanistic Reflection for Yom Kippur

Pale grey background with red dots in the upper corners. Jewish but not religious? TVCJ Secular, Humanistic Yom Kippur. Red flowers and pomegranates border the sides. Oct. 1st 7pm Livermore, CA. Tri-Valley Cultural Jews, Secular + Humanist, www.trivalleyculturaljews.org, culturaljews@gmail.com,  (925) 399-8029

Join Tri-Valley Cultural Jews for a meaningful evening of reflection, music, and connection as we welcome Yom Kippur through a secular, cultural Jewish lens.

Rooted in tradition—but free of religious ritual—our Kol Nidre gathering offers a space to reflect, honor memory, and connect deeply with ourselves and our community. Through thoughtful readings and stirring music, we’ll mark this special time in a way that resonates with humanistic values.

While not a children’s event, quiet activities will be available to help families feel comfortable and included. As always, TVCJ welcomes and embraces participants of all backgrounds, including interfaith and non-traditional families.

Reservations required
Suggested donation: $25 per non-member adult (no one turned away for lack of funds)
