CANCELLED: Latkes & Vodkas.
Regretfully, because of renewed concerns over Covid-19, our Dec 4 Chanukah event is CANCELLED.
Please stay tuned for news of our next special event for Brownstone Brooklyn Jews 21-40.
Meanwhile, B'nai Avraham — with Chabad of Brooklyn Heights — will be lighting the giant menorah outside of Brooklyn Boro Hall every night of Chanukah: Sunday thru Thursday at 5 pm; Friday at 2 pm; Saturday at 6 pm.
Thursday night's menorah lighting will also feature a free concern by Nissim Black.
Join us as we celebrate the miracle of Chanukah with vodkas (and other spirits), latkes and other holiday treats. Bring your friends or come make new ones — just make sure you don't miss it!
Not affiliated with Congregation B'nai Avraham? Not a problem! No synagogue affiliation is required to attend.
This event is restricted to indviduals ages 21 and over. Please note that, since refreshments will be served, proof of vaccination will be required.
Click here to register — and we'll see you on Dec 4!
