Meaningful Month of May

Gather With Us in May!

In Judaism, it’s all about community. We come together to remember our history, mourn our losses, celebrate our culture, and dream of our future. This is highlighted beautifully in the spring, and we invite you to join the Shalom Austin community as we mark Yom HaShoah, Yom HaZikaron, and Yom HaAtzmaut.

It is customary to wear a white top on Yom HaZikaron. We invite you to join in this custom.
