Festival of Feminists: A Hanukkah Celebration for All!
Lilith Magazine in partnership with American Sephardi Federation, Be’chol Lashon, Kane Street Synagogue, Lilith, The Senesh School, PJ Library, and Union House presents:
Festival of Feminists: A Hanukkah Celebration for All!
“Join us to discover the secret feminist history of Ḥanukkah!
In honor of Judith and all those who enrich our lives with their boldness and care, we’re excited to invite you to an evening of celebration, art-making, and connection.
Inspired by Chag Habanot (Festival of Daughters), a Middle Eastern and North African Jewish tradition honoring the intergenerational wisdom, power, and bravery of women and girls, Amanda Kingloff, co-author of The Art of Jewish Joy, will share a special interactive installation, inviting guests to take part in a creative interpretation of this beloved holiday.
Bring the women and feminists in your life who inspire you, whether they be your grandmother, roommate, best friend, mentor, or daughter. There will be food, drinks, a reading nook, crafts for all ages, and more! Hear the spectacular story of Judith from Rabbi Michelle Dardashti of Kane Street and light candles as a Jewish feminist community.
And, as a special Hanukkah gift: a portrait studio ready to send you home with your own intergenerational photos.
