We're featuring Passover haggadot, books, and games every Sunday, 9:30 – 12:30, Tuesday, 3:30 – 6:00, Fridays 9 - 4, or by appointment.* You may order multiple copies of haggadot through March 29, and receive them in time for the first night of Passover, April 8.

Purim's coming! March 10th

We have lots of great books in the library, for all ages, about the festival of Purim, its star, Queen Esther, its villain, Haman, and how Jews celebrate Purim all over the world.

In addition, here are some parodies I've written over the years.

Jews have written Purim parodies since medieval times. Here's some info about why this happened, and what types of parodies have been written throughout history:

Purim's a lot of fun at the temple! Come to our festive service, Erev Purim (Purim Eve), Monday March 9th at 6:30!
