In these fraught times, Muslims, Jews, Muslim-adjacent, and Jewish-adjacent folks are invited to
Celebrate Mimouna together!
Please join us for a delightful evening of socializing, learning, and eating.
What’s Mimouna?
Moroccan Jewish and Muslim custom of friendship and eating together after the Jewish festival of Pesah (Passover) ends.
Registration required by Friday, May 3 at 10am.
If the regular or reduced-rate prices are not financially feasible to you, please contact Rabbi Aaron in confidence to arrange to participate for free.
If you’re able to contribute more, please consider buying a ticket that also helps subsidize a reduced-rate ticket or becoming a program sponsor.
In order to make this event inclusive and comfortable for all, please refrain from bringing or wearing any flags or other political symbols or statements. Thank you for helping to create an atmosphere of togetherness across differences.
