Hanukah Party + Parade! Friday, Dec 3rd 6pm-9pmWe’ve missed our in-person Hanukah Party SO much! When we dance the horah until the spices fall off the shelf. We are infusing all the love from the past Hanukahs and bringing you a beautiful celebration of light, liberation, and community! This year we’re gonna do it up SAFELY by celebrating outside in front of the Alberta Shul building. We’ll have all the things you love, but instead of a hot tub we’ll have a neighborhood parade!
