Panevėžys Jewish Community Celebrates Sukkot

Sukkot is a holiday when Jews remember their liberation from slavery in Egypt and their journey to the Holy Land. The holiday has two meanings: the mundane meaning of harvest and the sukka, Hebrew for tent, the temporary dwelling of the forefathers after they left Egypt.

The Panevėžys Jewish Community will celebrate Sukkot at 2:00 P.M. on October 4 at Community headquarters.

Members, partners, friends and children are invited to take part. Children will receive gifts. There will be a food service for everyone with fall harvest foods.

The Rokiškis people’s theater Nutildyta mūza will present a skit directed by Neringa Dainienė.

Panevėžys Jewish Community members will be provided masks and disinfectant.

Admission is 3 euros.

We eagerly await you in holiday high spirits. Please tell us if you plan to attend this event at the Panevėžys Jewish Community.
