Sunday, December 18, 2022 • 24 Kislev 5783
4:30 PM - 6:00 PMFUSN (1326 Washington St, West Newton)[Enter through the door off of the small parking lot on Highland Street - near the Christmas tree sale!]
Join us for this truly intergenerational night of celebration! We will gather at 4:30 pm to light the first candle of Chanukah together — bring your chanukiah (menorah) and two candles! We’ll begin with Chanukah songs and candlelighting, followed at 5 pm by a variety of activities for all ages, including:
• Israeli dancing with Pazit Lahav of Brookline Folk Dancing
• Sufganiot (donut) making
• Text study for teens and adults
• Dreidl extravaganza
• Chanukah arts & crafts
• Fair trade chocolate Chanukah gelt and Sindyanna olive oil for sale!
We’ll close the evening with music from our Religious School band. Bring a friend, and join us for the Chanukah fun for all ages! We ask that masks be worn throughout the party. While we won’t be having a potluck meal together this year due to Covid, there will be goodies available to take home, and we'll be offering the option to pre-order a pizza to take home or eat outside at the end of the night (reserve a pizza here). We hope we can return to our latke potluck in 5784!
