Welcome

To

Karov

The Santa Monica Jewish Humanistic Chavurah 

A new, free, co-op community

Abstract Background

Let's Talk...

Being part of Karov (which means close or near) is taking a Jewish road slightly less traveled, and we love it that way. 

​

We are a musically centered, humanistic chavurah focused on connection, meditation, community, and hope -- without all of the God stuff.

​

Come experience how freeing and complete a secular yet spiritual Jewish experience can be.

​

And... we don't have formal membership, so if you love your current community and want to pop in for a few things with us, you are always welcome!
