OneTable Pittsburgh and J’Burgh, both programs of the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh, joined forces to host a Shabbat potluck picnic — a Shabbatluck picnic — at Summer Fridays at The Frick Pittsburgh on Aug. 3.

In 2017–2018, the Jewish Federation’s OneTable Pittsburgh helped 628 young adults build a Shabbat dinner tradition. Of OneTable Pittsburgh participants who attended a OneTable Shabbat dinner in 2017–2018, more than one-third returned for another OneTable Shabbat meal.
