Purim For Adults: The Jewish Mardi Gras


Skip the carnival and the costumes, and come for an adult evening celebration of Purim! We’ll gather at 7pm for a brief and boisterous telling of the Purim story (The Whole Megillah), then choose from among several exciting, interactive learning sessions:

Persian Food with a Persian Cook
The Spiritual Roots of Purim
Gender Mysteries from Torah
The Magic Behind the Mask: The Transformative Potential of Interfaith Relationships

After some thought provoking conversations we’ll join together at 8:20 to share sweets and schnapps tasting, plus schmoozing (chatting)! You must be 21 or older to participate.

Date: March 24
Time: 7pm
Place: East Bay JCC, 1414 Walnut St., Berkeley

The Interfaith Workshop will be The Magic Behind the Mask: The Transformative Potential of Interfaith Relationships.
Have you noticed how being with someone “different” from you brings out hidden elements of your own identity, your own personality? Together we’ll explore how interfaith relationships can cause tremendous growth in each person towards their true self.
