COMMUNITY BRUNCH 10-11:30 AM, APRIL 10

The Well is partnering with Zingerman’s Delicatessen to create Zingerman’s Friendseder Community Brunch. A special Friendseder brunch menu will offer traditional elements of the Passover seder, like matzah and charoset, but in a fun and exciting new way. Hosts will be Zingerman’s Event Coordinator Tessie Ives-Wilson and Rabbi Jeff Stombaugh. They will lead a guided tour of the special menu — the tastes, products, ingredients, meaning, ritual and traditions. Join in person at Zingerman’s Delicatessen or virtually on Zoom. 18% of ticket sales will be donated to support Friendseder. Two ways to participate: a $65 in-person ticket, and a $50 virtual ticket. To see what’s included in each ticket option, visit the Zingerman’s website: zingermans.com. The Well believes that costs should not be a barrier to participation.
