purim 5784
CSI celebrated the festive holiday of Purim from Saturday night, March 23rd through Sunday, March 24th. This year included a range of celebratory, reflective, and creative gatherings.
The Congregation kicked off Purim with a Saturday evening service and Havdalah, traditional Megillah reading, and a mask-painting art project with wine and cheese led by Judy Robkin.
The next morning at 10 am, community members of all ages enjoyed a playful Megillah reading in the Sanctuary featuring costumes and CSI's own signature "Megillah Mugshots" pictorial slideshow!
At 11 am, the Candyland Purim Carnival began, with a bounce house for little ones, an obstacle course for older children, face painting, games, King of Pops, and coffee and bagels!
The festivities culminated at noon with an unforgettable Purim shpiel, written by new member and acclaimed playwright Ali Viterbi and directed by Nancy Gorod. A musical journey back in time, the shpiel celebrated CSI's 120-year anniversary in spectacular Shearith fashion.
