In her role as Associate Cantor at Habonim, Kim Doron leads High Holiday services and contributes her musical gifts to many Shabbat and festival programs throughout the year.

Kim has been delighting audiences with her singing since the age of ten. Accompanying herself on guitar, she has performed at venues across Canada and the United States and participated in numerous musical theatre productions.

She brings years of experience as a music educator and children’s choir director — leading programs in schools and camps, conducting the junior and senior glee clubs at the Leo Baeck Day School, and directing Habonim’s Youth Choir for several years. Kim also served as the musical director on multiple March of the Living trips.

Coming from a deeply musical family, Kim is the daughter of world-renowned Cantor Paul Kowarsky, who served at Toronto’s Beth Tzedec Synagogue for over two decades. His compositions and recordings are sung worldwide. Learn more at paulkowarsky.ca.
