Shiur

EVERYTHING offers a gate to consciousness, the task is how to reveal and work with what we’ve been gifted or cursed with. The word shiur in Hebrew can mean “text based lesson” or “measurement” and is related to the Hebrew word sha’ar or “gate.” We like the multiplicity of connotations that SHIUR has, and we’re also measuring, assessing, entering gates, and reconfiguring how we interpret our world. There’s a whole literary-philosophical-artistic-architectural-spiritual heritage that’s just waiting to be re-examined, challenged, and critically interpreted. Through specially curated experiences, weekly newsletters and virtual SHIURim, we engage and experience art, architecture, space, text, music, sound, body, mind, theory and whatever else the times offer us. We have become a community, with members from all over the world, from all walks of life, who are eager to critically engage with content and discourse, both in real life and digitally. We meet virtually each week at the Virtual SHIUR, we have a community Slack, we organize public and private events and more.
