We’re so glad you’re interested in adding your event to the Openlev calendar.
To ensure alignment with our values and to support a meaningful experience for all, we ask that submitted events meet the following criteria:
Core Guidelines
Jewish Thread
All events must be rooted in or connected to Jewish tradition, culture, mysticism, or community life. This might show up through ritual, teaching, music, lineage, language, or intention.
Inclusive & Heart-Centered
Events should welcome people of diverse identities and backgrounds, fostering a spirit of compassion, curiosity, and care. We’re especially drawn to gatherings that feel soul-nourishing, authentic, and aligned with personal and collective growth.
Thematic Resonance
Submissions should align with one or more of the following themes:
- Movement
- Music
- Professional
- Mindfulness
- Ritual
- Shabat
- Community
What We Don’t Accept
We do not accept events that fall into the following categories:
- Purely cultural, commercial, or promotional events without a clear community-building intention
- Events that promote exclusivity, divisiveness, or harm
- Events without a clear Jewish or values-based thread
- Traditional synagogue services or minyanim
- Politically oriented events, including electoral campaigns, lobbying, or partisan advocacy
