Congregation Anshei Israel offers free general admission tickets (non-reserved seating) for all High Holy Days services to: all unaffiliated Jews 20- to 39-years-old (must call in advance); all college students; and all military personnel. A school or military ID along with another picture ID, such as a valid driver’s license, is required at the door.
On the second day of Rosh Hashanah, Friday, September 22, CAI will open its doors to the Tucson Jewish community as an opportunity to showcase the warmth and tradition that has been its hallmark for 87 years. We want others to experience what CAI members enjoy year-round and especially during the High Holy Days. Our membership will open its collective arms and welcome others into the oldest, Conservative synagogue in Tucson.
We want to make it easy for everyone to come pray, but for security reasons we ask that — in advance — you send us your name, address and email before the holidays. You will also need to provide ID at the door. For more information, call Debra at 520-745-5550, ext. 242.
