Family Friendly Rosh Hashanah Events in New Jersey
Submitted by Rachel Sokol on
This year, Rosh Hashanah begins on September 16 at sunset, and lasts until September 18 at sunset. Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year and on this holiday apples and honey—which represent ‘a sweet new year’—are generally enjoyed, along with a rounded challah which represents the circle of life. This was one of my favorite holidays as a child, and still is--and not just because I have a sweet tooth. To me, Rosh Hashanah feels like a new beginning, for myself and my family.
