Registration for DC Minyan's High Holiday Services is currently open.

Tickets are now available for everyone on a first-come, first-served basis. Please register soon as we expect some services to sell out. Note that ticket prices for guests, associate members, and non-members will increase on September 15. If you have any questions, please email info@dcminyan.org.

High Holiday tickets are included in membership dues. If you would like to become a member, please complete this form

VOLUNTEERING OVER THE CHAGIM

Putting on the full set of chagim services requires not just daveners and leyners, but volunteers to assist with logistics, set up spaces, greet guests, organize food, and help with programming. Help make sure our community High Holiday services run smoothly by signing up for  volunteer slots on this spreadsheet. Thank you for being a supporter of our holiday programming!

Hospitality

If you would like to open your home to a guest for a meal this Rosh Hashanah, or if you would like to be matched up at a community member's holiday meal, please email hospitality@dcminyan.org to match you up with someone.

High Holiday Volunteer Opportunities with DC Minyan Kids

We are looking for volunteers to run kids programming during Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. If you're willing to help out, please let us know at parents@dcminyan.org -- we'll make sure you have the support you need. If you don't feel like you can lead a service, but have resources that can be helpful or have babysitters you know and trust, please let us know as well!

YOU DON'T NEED TO BE A PARENT TO BE GREAT AT THIS JOB!
