On June 18, 2024, Lab/Shul will host our annual spring Gala honoring Sandi DuBowski, a long-time, active Lab/Shul community member and award-winning filmmaker of the new film Sabbath Queen, documenting the past 21 years of Rabbi Amichai Lau-Lavie’s life journey.
Rabbi Amichai and Lab/Shul are at pivotal moments of growth, after two decades of bringing to fruition a collective vision for a more inclusive, empathetic, and engaged world. Sabbath Queen, premiering June 9th at the prestigious Tribeca Film Festival, is a vibrant tapestry showcasing Rabbi Amichai’s visionary leadership and the birth and evolution of Lab/Shul. It captures its essence as a beacon of innovation, ritual, and community-building, and is a testament to the transformative power of Lab/Shul as a center of spiritual creativity and engagement. The film is poised to inspire individuals across the globe to connect, reflect, and act, offering a unique platform to advance Rabbi Amichai’s profile and Lab/Shul’s mission on a global scale.
