Purim Crafts Fair

Robinson’s, Gap, K-B, and Macy’s. Feathers, glue, jam, and beans. Shoppers and afternoon strollers made their way through the mall. Amidst the department stores and boutiques there was something to remind them of their Jewishness.

Glass tables were set with an array of materials. At one end children were decorating Purim masks with feathers and beads. At another table they were filling Chinese take-out baskets with beans to be used for graggers to drown out Haman’s name. In the center of all the activity, children and adults alike were forming dough into hamantashen.

That was last year’s Purim Crafts Fair at S. Monica Place. It was fun and exciting for the whole family. Once again this year, Chabad in S. Monica will be sponsoring a Purim Crafts Fair. Be sure to come and bring the family. It will take place, Sunday February 24th from 2:00—4:00 pm at S. Monica Place in center court.
