Hi! My name is Tara Townsend. I'm a SF mom of two young kids, grand-daughter of holocaust survivors, former fashion exec turned gaming exec, and a feminist spiritual seeker. Last Hanukkah, I got a little bit fed up: both with the tacky disposable holiday decor options on the market, and with the outdated prayers our family was rotely reciting. In a religious tradition so deep and rich, I knew that a more vibrant, nourishing connection with the Divine - and with sacred rituals and objects - must be possible. So on the last night of Hanukkah a year ago, it occurred to me while tossing a tangle of tinsel dreidels into the trash, that maybe we shouldn’t be waiting on chain party stores to evolve the canon of Jewish holiday decor.
