Love at the Center – Shabbat Eve

LOVE AT THE CENTER
Friday, July 18, 6:30 PM in Santa Monica, CA
Davvenen with Divine Live Music and a five-course garden-to-table Shabbat meal.
A RELAXED EVENING AT A PRIVATE HOME
A relaxed evening at a private home with friends. Together, we unwind from the workweek, lift our spirits, and welcome ease into our lives. We step away from the constant cycle of news and noise. Shabbat is meant to be a taste of the Garden of Eden.
We are delighted that Rabbi T’mimah will lead a mystical Friday night prayer service. The soulful sound of Valadez/Moos will enhance our prayers with inspiring music.
We will pray, learn, converse, and sit down together for dinner.
DOORS OPEN AT 6:15
The door opens at 6:15 PM, so please arrive early to enjoy welcome snacks and festivities.
Whether you’ve been honoring Shabbat since you were born or are curious to learn more, celebrate with us.
You are invited! We are an inclusive community.

OUR DAVVENEN TEAM

Both talented singer/songwriters and accomplished musicians, Valadez/Moos have been playing together for over 18 years. They are prepared to pack in a kaleidoscope of songs deep and easy to love. They are as comfortable with a Mardi Gras mambo as they are with a love ballad from the heart of Spain, or a Shabbat prayer service. Together, they create unforgettable moments that remind us that music can be magic.
Stefani Valadez is a Venice local known for her World Music Ensemble SVE. (You may have seen them around town at Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, Santa Monica Pier or at Disney’s California Adventure.) Her musical roots love to be shaken out in collaboration with Steve Moos. Singing originals, their favorite Folk-Rock n’ Blues classics & songs from a deep World Music repertoire, with Stef on haunting vocals & sassy rhythm guitar. https://www.stefanivaladezmusic.com/
