Join Tri-Valley Cultural Jews for a warm, welcoming (and actually enjoyable) Passover Seder and potluck in Livermore on Saturday, April 4.We'll retell the classic story--freedom, resilience, and yes...crunchy matzoh. Our Secular Humanist Seder keeps the tradition alive in a way that's thoughtful, participatory, and open to everyone. Expect music, storytelling, and at least a few moments of "wait, this is actually really interesting."Our Seder starts at 5 PM, followed by a relaxed potluck at 6:30 PM--because nothing says "freedom" like finally getting to eat! (Address shared after you RSVP).Whether you're a Seder regular, a little rusty on the Four Questions, or just wondering what matzah actually tastes like, you'll find a seat at our table. Come solo or bring friends and family--there's always room for one more.Tri-Valley Cultural Jews is an inclusive Secular Humanist community celebrating Jewish culture, history, and tradition with curiosity, warmth, and a good sense of humor. We also offer a Jewish Culture School (ages 5 through teen) and a personalized Brit Mitzvah program--because asking big questions shouldn't stop at childhood.For more information or to RSVP, please email us at culturaljews@gmail.com or call (925) 399-8029.
