Inaugural Symposium: Opening the Gates of Hasidic Thought, Princeton University

Sunday November 9, 2025
10:30 AM - 5:00 PM

The Princeton Institute for Hasidic Thought invites you to join us on Sunday, November 9th at Princeton University for a symposium exploring the role and relevance of Hasidic thinking within the modern intellectual and cultural landscape. Bringing together scholars and students from a range of backgrounds and disciplines, this event aims to foster a dynamic and open conversation around the enduring significance of Hasidic texts, methods, and ideas. Welcoming both those deeply familiar with the Hasidic tradition and those newly curious, we will ask what it means to engage with Hasidic thought today and how it might contribute to rigorous intellectual inquiry and existential reflection.

There are no separate rehearsals and no auditions. Walk-in singers and listen-only guests are welcome at all sessions. Conductors may do some light preparation with the chorus before the sing-through. Orchestra members participate by invitation, based on the instrumental needs of the work.
