The Washington Square Minyan is an independent congregation, guided by halacha and following the traditional liturgy. The Minyan is committed to creating spirited and spiritual davening and community in a family-friendly atmosphere. Services are egalitarian, with full participation by men and women. Men and women sit separately without a mechitza.
An eight member Va'ad runs all aspects of minyan programming. Each Va'ad member works with Teams of community members who focus on specific programs and minyan events.
