Shabbat Shalom Vanderbilt
Erev Shabbat services are led by students for students. Wine, challah, and refreshments are served. Services are held in the Ben Schulman Center for Jewish Life, located at the corner of 25th and Vanderbilt Place, just opposite Memorial Gym.
Unless otherwise stated, services are at 5:30 followed by dinner at 6:30.
This year, thanks to a generous grant from private donors and the National Council of Jewish Women - Nashville Division, we are able to serve a Kosher meat meal following every Shabbat service catered by Goldie Shepard. We welcome anyone to come for Shabbat dinner without coming to services as well.
