Purim Party, Silent Auction, Purimshpiel

Join us in person (and in costume!) for a community-wide, family-friendly celebration. The Family School learners will perform a shpiel that they have been preparing for the last few weeks—it's a can't-miss! Our family school has been working with Cantor Raechel to write, produce, and perform their own original Purim Spiel. Complete with musical numbers and modern cultural references, this Spiel is fun for all ages, even grown ups. There will also be games and crafts, and we will serve hamantaschen. Don’t miss out on this fun event!

Items needed for silent auction! Do you have a beautiful, unique art/craft/jewelry item, service or talent you would be willing to donate to our Purim silent auction? Deadline for submissions is March 18th. Please contact Harriet Miller at 845-338-2230 for details and to arrange for donation drop off.

Your donation makes all we do possible!


While finances should never be a barrier for engagement the WJC would not be the community we are without you and your contributions. The cost per person for running this event is about $20 per person to break even. If you are able to contribute $20 please do so. If you are able to contribute more for those who aren't able to please so. If you are not able to contribute the full $20, please make a contribution that is meaningful to you. Our hope is that everyone who attends will be able to make a meaningful contribution. 

During the time of Purim there are four mitzvot (commandments) one being Mananot L'evyonim (giving gifts to those in need).  The WJC is in need of additional doantions to meet our intention of a balanced budget. Please contribute what you can.
