Purim: The Whole Megillah!

  • Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue 1457 Griswold Street Detroit, MI, 48226 United States (map)

Join the Downtown Synagogue at our annual community reading of the Megillah for the holiday of Purim to commemorate the defeat of Haman's (BOOOOO!) plot to get rid of the Jews, foiled by the heroic and dazzling Esther (YAAAAAY!).

Come in costume and bring a box of kosher pasta to use as a grogger – all to be donated to Yad Ezra after Purim. Children book donations in fair condition will be accepted- all to be donated to Palmer Park Preparatory Academy.

Hamantashen and beverages will be provided.
