Every year at Sukkot, we build something that cannot last. A sukkah is designed to be fragile; its roof loose enough to see the stars through, its walls temporary, the whole structure meant to remind us that permanence is but an illusion.

The Tiny Windows team is honored to help the smart, menschy folks at Assembly tell their story, and we’re excited to share this very personal window into what Jewish community-building means to their kind and seemingly indefatigable Executive Director, Erica Frankel.

All of it sits in the conditions Sukkot asks us to sit in: abundance, exposure, and the particular beauty of a structure you build already knowing you’ll take it down.

The rituals of both Sukkos and Simchas Torah can be very communally-minded and outwardly obvious. But Shmini Atzeres is different.

As we head into Sukkot, I am reflecting on the stories, movies, and music from this past year that have brought forward feelings of renewal, reinvigoration, and most importantly served as reminders to never lose hope in the human spirit.

There’s a moment every fall when Jewish neighborhoods fill with the sound of hammering. Yom Kippur ends, the fast is barely out of our systems, and suddenly everyone’s outside with lumber.

Sukkot is a holiday that reminds us of our connection to nature—and each other.

Of all the things Jewish tradition could ask us to do in a sukkah, the most important is that we fill it with guests.

Most of us know what we care about and the issue our missions are meant to address. What's harder is translating that into something another person can actually receive.

What does active listening in music have to do with strategy, communications, and Jewish nonprofits?  A lot, it turns out!

Forty-nine days, each with its own blessing, each with its own special characteristic. It’s as much about marking time as it is about preparing for it.

We’re grateful to Rabbi Adina Allen for her wisdom and partnership, and honored to share an excerpt of “The Place of All Possibility” here.

How ancient wisdom meets modern strategy for Jewish organizations ready to write their next chapter.

This magazine is a new kind of window for us. We've called it The Frame because if Tiny Windows is about finding the right opening to look through, The Frame is about what you build around it.
