Tickets are just $18 for general seating and $36 for preferred seating, or step up as a $180 VIP sponsor, which includes two reserved tickets and a special post-event photo op with Neshama (hello, new profile picture!). Come for the music, stay for the community, and leave feeling energized, inspired, and very glad you didn’t spend this Saturday night on the couch.

A powerhouse performer with a heart as radiant as her sound, Neshama masterfully blends tradition, innovation, and spiritual depth, creating musical experiences that lift the spirit and open the heart. Her voice carries not only the legacy of her legendary father, Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach, but also her own bold, creative vision—one that speaks to healing, hope, and the beauty of community. Whether onstage or in prayer, Neshama transforms every gathering into a moment of connection, joy, and meaning, and CSP is honored to bring her inspiring presence to Orange County.

CSP – Soviet Jews from Revolutionaries to Refuseniks
The story of Soviet Jews is not a story of a single identity or a single role. It is a story of builders and critics, of loyal citizens and disillusioned dissidents, of idealists who believed in the Soviet dream and victims crushed by the very system they helped create. Across seven decades, Jews stood on every side of the Soviet project — as passionate revolutionaries, administrators, cultural leaders, soldiers, skeptics, silent conformists, targets of repression, and ultimately as the men and women who helped bring Jewish life back to the world stage.
Cost: $0.00
