Get ready to celebrate the Festival of Lights with some amazing events at the Weinstein JCC this December!
In partnership with the Jewish Community Federation of Richmond, we’re thrilled to host two fantastic Chanukah celebrations.
First, on Saturday, Dec. 7, PJ Library and the Weinstein JCC present LEGOs and Latkes from 6:30-8:30 p.m. This fun-filled event, perfect for kids ages 5-10 and their adults, will feature Chanukah-themed LEGO building activities, led by Bricks4Kidz.
Kids will also have the chance to meet a LEGO Masters star, sure to spark their creativity and excitement! Enjoy a delicious kosher meat dinner and latkes, along with wine for the adults.
The cost is just $10 per person, with a $40 family cap. Registration is strongly encouraged – sign up by Nov. 29 at jewishrichmond.regfox.com/pj-library-legos-latkes-12724 for a chance to win a LEGO prize!
Then, on Thursday, Dec. 19, join NexGen of the Jewish Community Federation of Richmond, The Bridge, Kibitz, and Weinstein JCC’s JHub for Menorah Madness, an upscale, adults-only Chanukah celebration from 7-9:30 P.M. at the Dominion Payroll Building in Scott’s Addition. This event, for guests ages 25-45, will feature music by DJ David Sporn, festive games, complimentary drinks, and a Build-a-Latke bar, along with other delicious treats.
