CALENDAR Rabbi Hanan Sills founded Ad-Olam-Synagogue Without Walls for anyone interested in the spirit of Jewish traditions. The outreach program is based on universal teachings and open to people of all backgrounds, says Jordan Michels, president of Ad Olam. Yom Kippur is the day of atonement in the Jewish religion — a day of “reevaluating our lives over the last year, throwing out the old, asking for forgiveness and looking to direct our lives into a more positive direction,” Michels says. Tuesday evening services will be held before the daylong events begin on Wednesday, Oct. 12. The day includes morning services, music and workshops, and it ends with a potluck after sundown. To anyone curious about attending Michels says, “It’s light, entertaining and fun and for anyone looking for traditional ways to find deeper connection in themselves, and think about things on a more deeper spiritual level.” Michels says that approximately 50 percent of the services include music. Rob Tobias will perform original music based on his reinterpretation of traditional music Michaels says. “You don’t have to believe this or that,” Michaels adds. He says the service is considered “flexi-dox. You find the right way that works for you.” Yom Kippur with Ad Olam — Synagogue without Walls services run 7 pm to 9 pm on Tuesday, Oct. 11 and 10:30 am through the evening on Wednesday, Oct. 12, Unity of the Valley Church, 3912 Dillard Rd.; Don. — Corinne Boyer Enjoy Barrel-aged beer, cider & whiskey from the regions top brewers Eugene Oregon Unleash Yourself, wellness workshops, Peterson Barn. $5. 3D Printing & Fabrication con- tinues.
