Passover is a holiday of gathering and retelling the story of liberation, asking questions, and welcoming both familiar faces and new ones. Rooted in storytelling, ritual, and connection, the holiday invites each of us to see ourselves as part of a larger journey—from narrowness to possibility, from isolation to community.
Here in Vermont, that sense of community is something truly special. Whether at home or at a community seder, we come together in ways that are intimate, creative, and deeply connected—often weaving together tradition with the values that shape our lives today.
The JCVT Summit is our community’s larger table.
Just as the seder brings us together across generations and perspectives, the Summit is an incredible opportunity to gather with Jewish Vermonters—those you know and those you don’t yet. It’s a chance to share stories, spark ideas, and strengthen the connections that sustain Jewish life across our state.
This season, as we reflect on freedom, resilience, and renewal, we invite you to extend the spirit of the seder beyond your home and into this wider circle.
