Lanterns & Latkes: An Asian Jewish Hanukkah

Our fourth NuRoots Asian Jewish Hanukkah is all about the light that outshines the darkness. Asian Jews and their loved ones will gather to light the Hanukkiah, enjoy a jazz band and a delicious dinner, and schmooze with friends new and old. As we chat, each person will be given a white paper lantern. With markers provided, we’ll all decorate our lanterns with things that speak to our unique identities. Then, placing an electric light inside each lantern, we’ll light our space with the beautiful glow of our individual personalities, creating the perfect “Instagram moment” to close out 2024 — and a lantern souvenir to take home with you as you enter 2025. This experience is part of NuRoots’ tenth Infinite Light festival. Discover the lineup at nuroots.org/infinitelight
