Mid-Wilshire's IKAR hosts "an evening of hilarity and revelry" in celebration of Purim on Zoom.

Purim is an upside-down day full of paradoxes and secret identities. The Book of Esther (Megillat Esther) tells the story of the Jewish fight for survival in which the lines between good and evil are blurred and the outcome seems to depend more on human acts of courage than on Divine intervention. At the heart of this holiday is a message of the precariousness of life, and a reminder that in a chaotic and sometimes cruel world, the best we can do is stay true to who we are.

The kids' celebration starts at 5:45pm with a Magic Show; a Mini-Megillah and Costume Parade follows at 6:15pm. (The adult program follows starting at 7pm).

Register on Zoom to join in the festivities.
