Let's Find Out: Hanukkah, the Jewish Festival of Lights (For families)

Join our special guest host Kate Donley to explore the sights, songs, snacks, and other cultural traditions connected to Hanukkah. We’ll read a book, touch a Jewish menorah, and sing about dreidles and latkes. Enjoy sweet sufganiyot – little donuts – a tradition that symbolizes the oil that lasted eight nights. We’ll have coloring pages and opportunities to ask questions. Admission tickets will be distributed at the Youth Services Desk 15 minutes before the start of the program.
