We will not be at MGJDS today and this Adult Ed presentation will only be available virtually.
10:00 am – 11:30 am

Machar’s Rabbi, Jeremy Kridel, in conversation with
Sasha Sagan: Rituals and Celebrations Rooted in Science

How do we mark time, process change, celebrate, and mourn without the infrastructure of religion?

Author Sasha Sagan discusses old and new traditions through a secular lens, exploring the themes of her first book, For Small Creatures Such As We: Rituals for Finding Meaning in Our Unlikely World.
Sagan’s essays and interviews on death, history, and nature, from a secular viewpoint and rooted in science have appeared in The Cut, O the Oprah Magazine, Lit Hub, and Atmos. Sasha Sagan is the daughter of the late Carl Sagan, a well-known astronomer.
