Open Temple accelerates into the international spotlight! We have been invited to join Cohort 10 of the much celebrated UpStart Accelerator. UpStart partners with innovators to redesign the experience and expression of Jewish life. Rabbi Lori and members of the Open Temple staff will be working closely with UpStart and members of Cohort 10 (as well as past cohort participants) to take Open Temple to the next level.
We are particularly thrilled to share this journey with Sara Brandes, Zachary Lasker, Craig Reid Taubman and their organizations Or HaLev and Pico Union Project. Kudos to all of Cohort 10 Colleagues: JQ International, Eshel, Makom Community, Olive Tree Arts, Tikkun Ha-Ir, and No Shame on U, we look forward to getting to know you all!
