Take a deep dive into the traditions of niddah, Jewish laws regarding the separation of menstruating women from men. Discuss what’s gained and what’s lost by this practice, and how might it be meaningful for couples, both straight and LGBTQ. Led by JoHanna Potts, Education Director and co-founder of The Jewish Studio.
