Welcome to DC Minyan!

DC Beit Midrash is an open, accessible, and non-denominational space for Jewish learning in DC, where people from all different backgrounds and levels of knowledge come together to study.

Sign up for the DCJCC, DC Minyan, and Fresh & Local CSA’s Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program!  You’ll get quality fresh produce every week while promoting local agriculture.  Join us as we bring together members of the community to support locally grown food. You, the shareholders, pledge to cover some of the anticipated costs of planting and harvesting the farm’s fruits and vegetables. In return, you will receive a weekly portion, or “share”, of the farm’s bounty throughout the growing season and reconnect to the land and our food system. Please register here by June 15th. For more information, contact Rachel Briks at csa@dcminyan.org.

We are excited to announce that DC Minyan’s 10th anniversary celebration will include a Community Pledge. The team of volunteers running the Community Pledge is committed to helping each member find something to do, learn, give, or plan with a special focus on doing something NEW. Please take a moment to fill out the Community Pledge form by clicking here. It will only take 1-2 minutes to complete. After you submit the form, a member of the pledge team will follow up with you to help get you started. Please contact Abigail Romirowsky and Stephanie Schwartz at pledge@dcminyan.org with any questions!
