Join us for the re-telling of the Purim story (the whole Megillah)! 

This Purim night will kick off with a family-friendly Purim celebration at Mishkon will feature music, snacks, face painting, hamantaschen, and costumes! So partake in the religious observance of dressing up to enjoy a costume parade to fulfill the tradition of wearing masks, hiding our identity – or revealing our true identity.

Our second Megillah Reading is geared towards adults and will begin at 7:15 p.m.. Purim celebrates a profound reversal of fortune — the deliverance of the Jews of ancient Persia from persecution. Rescued by heroic intervention from Queen Esther and her cousin Mordechai, the Jewish people were saved from the diabolical plot of the evil Haman. The story of Purim, recalled in Megilat Esther, or the Book of Esther, is laced with the very relevant themes of concealing one’s identity and overcoming the baseless hatred of the Jewish people. Let's gather in our costumes to hear the Megillah, laugh, make l’chayims, and celebrate our very Jewish story.
