Join us for Chanukah 5785/2024!
Chanukah is an eight-day holiday filled with fun, excitement, and joy! Scroll down to check out our lineup of pre-Chanukah and Chanukah events.
Chanukah begins on the eve of Kislev 25 and continues for eight days. This year, on the civil calendar, Chanukah runs from December 25 to January 2.
At the heart of the festival is the nightly menorah lighting. The menorah holds nine flames, one of which is the shamash (“attendant”), used to kindle the other eight lights. On the first night, we light just one flame, and each subsequent night we add another. By the eighth night of Chanukah, all eight lights are kindled.
On Chanukah (or Hanukkah, as it's also spelled), we celebrate the survival of the Jewish people and the great miracles G‑d performed for us.
