As the first day of Hanukkah approaches, menorahs will illuminate the night sky at sundown.
Joining in this celebration, various events are planned across the Hudson Valley:
- Mount Vernon City Hall Plaza: A Menorah lighting ceremony will take place, accompanied by the melodious singing of the Sinai Free Synagogue Choir, starting at 4
- Ossining, Market Square: A unique Menorahcade of cars will drive to Market Square, where a grand Menorah will be kindled, commencing at 6
- Chabad of Orange County in Goshen: Hosting an evening dedicated to combating antisemitism, the community is invited to a Chanukkah Menorah lighting event from 6 to 7
These events symbolize the resilience and unity of the community, embracing the spirit of Hanukkah while confronting challenges of rising antisemitism.
