SUMMARY:The Access Code: Naming God and Opening to Prayer
DESCRIPTION:The first line of the traditional liturgical prayer is the petikhah (the opening)\, where we name and describe the One we will be in holy conversation with and then state the basic premise of the prayer. Traditionally\, we gain access to God by praying to Adonai\, Melekh HaOlam\, the “Lord\, King of the Universe\,” but we can call God by any name\, gendered or not\, hierarchical or not\, depending of who or what we need to pray to or for. In this session\, we will explore the petikhah and how to use it to create our own prayers. \nTrisha Arlin is a liturgist\, writer\, performer\, and student of prayer in Brooklyn\, NY. She has served as a liturgist\, scholar\, and artist in residence and taught for venues including the National Havurah Committee’s Summer Institute\, Ritualwell.org\, Haggadot.com\, and for synagogues around the country. She is a builder of Bayit’s Liturgical Arts project. Trisha received a BA in Theater from Antioch College in 1975 and an MFA in Film (Screenwriting) in 1997 from Columbia University. In 2009/2010\, Trisha was an Arts Fellow at the Drisha Institute. In 2011\, she graduated from the sixth cohort of the Davennen Leadership Training Institute (DLTI). Trisha’s liturgy has been used in services\, for ritual occasions\, and at venues of many denominations nationwide. She is the author of Place Yourself: Words of Poetry and Intention (a collection of liturgy and kavannot). Her work has appeared in a variety of journals\, siddurim\, and collections of liturgy and can be found online at TrishaArlin.com\, Ritualwell.org\, and opensiddur.org. \nAll sessions will be recorded and sent to participants.

SUMMARY:Borrowed Language: The Cento and the Piyyut
DESCRIPTION:As Jewish writers\, we inherit an ocean of text with which to be in relationship. How can we make creative use of our lineage as People of the Book and play with the language we’ve been given? In this generative workshop\, we will explore two poetic forms of ancient origins: the Cento (Latin for patchwork) and the Piyyut (Hebrew for storytelling\, a liturgical poem)\, which both borrow heavily\, sometimes entirely\, from pre-existing textual materials in order to create something new. We’ll read classical and contemporary examples of these forms and explore what they share. Participants will be guided through writing exercises\, leaving with at least one new poem draft of their own. \nMónica Gomery is a rabbi and poet. Her work explores queerness\, diaspora\, ancestry\, theology\, and cultivating courageous hearts. Her second poetry collection\, Might Kindred\, won the 2021 Prairie Schooner Raz-Shumaker Book Prize and is forthcoming from the University of Nebraska Press\, fall 2022. She is the author of the poetry collection Here is the Night and the Night on the Road and the chapbook Of Darkness and Tumbling. Mónica serves as a rabbi at Kol Tzedek Synagogue and on the faculty of SVARA: A Traditionally Radical Yeshiva and is also a co-founder of Let My People Sing! \nThe session will be recorded and sent to participants.

SUMMARY:Liturgy Writing for Prayer Leaders
DESCRIPTION:May 24\, 31\, June 7\, 14\, 21\, 28\, 2023\n12:00–1:30 p.m. EDT \nLiturgy may be poetry\, but is a poem necessarily liturgy? What turns a piece of writing into liturgy\, something you can use during a prayer service? In this immersion\, you will learn criteria and techniques to transform your poems and prayers into liturgy. In each session\, we will discuss a topic you might need to address during a prayer service or event; then you will be prompted to write your personal take on it\, as a first step toward creating your own liturgy. This immersion is for prayer leaders who have some experience writing prayers and want to receive feedback and hone their skills as liturgists in a supportive environment. \nTrisha Arlin is a liturgist\, writer\, performer\, and student of prayer in Brooklyn\, NY.
