We invite you to join us for our Purim Carnival, March 20th, in costume or casual.
Purim is the festival of Queen Esther, an ancient Jewish queen that was courageous enough to stand up to the wicked Haman and save her people.
We celebrate by dressing up in costumes, making noise with graggers, and eating hamantaschen.

Learn how to make your own graggers and hamantaschen here.
