Come Together: A Night of Nefesh Joy

Come Together: A Night of Nefesh Joy will be a celebration of music and community that reflects the heart of Nefesh through song, connection, and kavod (honor) to those who represent our deepest values.

Featured performers include Duvid Swirsky, Sally Dworsky, the Nefesh Band and special guests (to be announced!) who will share new songs and classic favorites.

We will also honor three beloved members of the Nefesh community, each of whom embodies a different expression of generosity and leadership:

Zackary Drucker — Nefesh Board member, acclaimed filmmaker, and powerful advocate for trans rights, whose creative and moral vision continues to expand what justice and belonging can look like.

David Meltzer — Psychiatrist and philanthropist, whose quiet generosity and commitment to healing strengthen the Nefesh community in profound ways.

Guillermo Torres — Immigration Program Director of Clergy and Laity United, a steadfast and inspiring advocate for immigrants in our city, and a long-time partner in Nefesh’s interfaith justice work, whose deep solidarity and leadership anchor our values in action.

When: Thursday, May 7 (show at 7pm)

Where: Barnsdall Gallery Theatre, 4800 Hollywood Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90027
