Holidays

Jewish Holidays, Chagim, are a special time to celebrate with your family and community. Please read below about some of our past offerings, if you’d like to learn more about Or Zarua’s programming for kids and families.

For information about upcoming events and programs, see the calendar or Upcoming Events page.


Celebrate the Hagim with Or Zarua!

High Holy Days
Start the year with us as we celebrate Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur together.

Apples and Honey Tots and Kids meet on Rosh Hashanah.
Learn and pray with your family and explore big Jewish questions at the Family Learning Experience.


Sukkot
Sukkot is perhaps the richest time of the year for Or Zarua Youth, with exciting celebrations for children and families!

This year we had Sukkah Tots, Pizza in the Sukkah and Trivia Night in the Sukkah.

The celebrations continue on Simhat Torah!

Young children begin the holiday with Simhat Torah and Sugar Cones with Rabbi Bolton.


Hanukkah

Celebrate Hanukkah with the entire OZ community at the Congregational Hanukkah Dinner.


Purim
A fun night for the whole community!

Children come before the congregational Megillah reading for a special Kids’ Purim Party.


Shavuot

The whole OZ community is invited to our annual Shavuot Tikkun, followed by dairy desserts.
