DETAILS

Come Together: A Night of Nefesh Joy is a celebration of music and community that reflects the heart of Nefesh through song, connection, and kavod (honor) to those who represent our deepest values. Come Together is an invitation to support the extraordinary, hope-giving, spirit-sustaining, justice-seeking impact the Nefesh community has on all of us, on Los Angeles, and on the wider world beyond. And to have a really joyful time doing so! Here’s what to expect from our first ever Spring Benefit Concert: Featured performers include SALLY DWORSKY, DUVID SWIRSKY and THE NEFESH BAND and some very special guests to be announced, who will share new songs and classic favorites. We will also honor three beloved members of the Nefesh community, each of whom embodies a different expression of courageous generosity and leadership: ZACKARY DRUCKER — Nefesh Board member, acclaimed filmmaker, and powerful advocate for trans rights, whose creative and moral vision continues to expand what justice and belonging can look like. DAVID MELTZER — Psychiatrist and philanthropist, whose quiet generosity and commitment to healing strengthen the Nefesh community in profound ways. GUILLERMO TORRES — Immigration Program Director of Clergy and Laity United, a steadfast and inspiring advocate for immigrants in our city, and a long-time partner in Nefesh’s interfaith justice work, whose deep solidarity and leadership anchor our values in action.
