Please join us for a joyous Purim full of mitzvot, community & fun for all ages!
With three full megillah readings, a family puppet show with abridged megillah reading, and dedicated parties for adults, middle-schoolers, and high-school teens, we’ve got something for everyone!
See below for the full schedule.
Come in costume and B.Y.O. Gragger/Ra’ashan/Noisemaker!
Advance registration required for all participants.

If you can’t afford regular-price tickets, please choose the reduced-rate option, or contact us.
Money from ticket sales will be put toward nearly $5,000 of Purim expenses, including venue rental, sound technician, food costs, party supplies, etc.
There are lots of great opportunities to help sponsor Purim in honour or memory of someone. Please contact Rabbi Aaron to discuss how you can help.
