Lil Sukkah In The Desert
Judah Horowitz, Santa Fe, New Mexico
“We are building a sukkah out in the desert south of Santa Fe, NM, and having some young Jews over to celebrate. Sunday will be dedicated to a group decorating party with lots of art being hung on the wall, followed by a potluck dinner at which we’ll learn traditional sukkot songs. We will also have some Native friends joining us for a discussion about the role of the fall harvest in our current world.”
