Jewish Melbourne Rosh Hashanah in the time of covid

Title (Dublin Core)

Jewish Melbourne Rosh Hashanah in the time of covid

Description (Dublin Core)

Our Neighbours offered to blow the shofar for the street. A few Jewish families live on our street in Balaclava. We all gathered in the street, All still and all connected by the mitzvah of hearing the shofar. It was a very special feeling. I felt the need to document this extraordinary event, this moment in history.
In this time when so many of us are disconnected this moment of togetherness felt precious.
