JQT Vancouver, Queer Mikveh Project, and Edot Midwest Regional Jewish Diversity and Racial Justice Collaborative invite you to a virtual mikveh in celebration of the 3rd annual JQT Heritage Month!

We will come together for accessible embodied practice, music & song, poetry, and creative celebration of queer Jewishness through ritual water immersion. Folks can join from their bathtub or with a cup of tea or vessel of water to drink in your mikveh. This event will be ASL interpreted and captioned, so as to make it as accessible as possible for all members of our communities.

Free registration or by donation: https://bridgingwaterrituals.eventbrite.ca

Previous virtual mikveh events have drawn over 200 international registrants from Australia, UK, Germany, Mexico, Brazil, Canada, Hawaii and throughout Turtle Island. We had collaborators lead us in song, share a creative land acknowledgement, perform poetry, lead us in a somatic exercise, and a meditation that included reflection and intention-setting. We then recited the mikveh blessing together. Attendees and collaborators were able to perform this ritual in whatever way felt right for them. Looking forward to seeing you for our JQT Heritage Month edition!
