A Celebration of Multicultural Jewish Identity

Inspired by both the Lunar New Year and the beginning of Black History Month, we will gather in a welcoming and joyful space for diverse Jewish families to mark the end of the week, explore their unique cultural histories while also creating space for learning, conversation, and celebration of Jewish experiences. Together, we will explore traditions, share stories, enjoy tasty treats and celebrate the fullness of our identities.

This event is open to all multiracial and Jewish families of color.

Come celebrate and connect in a space where all are seen, valued, and celebrated.

We can’t wait to share this beautiful evening with you!
