Purim

It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane, It’s Purim!

Put on your cape and mask and join us for a Superhero Purim Celebration at Anshe Emet!

We’re transforming Purim into a power-packed adventure filled with joy, laughter, and heroic spirit for all ages.

Enjoy a lively Superhero-Themed Spiel, Megillah readings, inflatables, games and activities, costumes galore, and delicious Purim treats. Come dressed as your favorite superhero (or create your own!) and help us celebrate the courage, resilience, and unity that Purim represents.

Bring your family, bring your friends, and get ready to save the day—Purim style!
