Religious Life

Celebrating Shabbat and holidays at UW Hillel offers a unique opportunity to bring together many members of the community. Each Shabbat, students join together for Reform, Conservative and Orthodox Services and a delicious Shabbat meal.  UW Hillel has celebrations for all holidays during the year, fostering a warm community atmosphere.

Shabbat

Every week, 150 or more students join together at the Hillel for student-led Shabbat services followed by FREE dinner. Some students choose to come to services and meals. Others may attend only services or only to join their friends for a Shabbat meal.

UW students, please make reservation for our FREE Friday night dinner.

Families can now REGISTER ONLINE for Welcome Week Shabbat on August 27th!
