SAVE THE DATE!! — ASL-interpreted Purim Night Experience (Mar23)
For many years, it’s been a Town & Village (T&V) Synagogue (www.tandv.org)
tradition to offer an ASL-interpreted Purim Night experience with a
Deaf-hearing team, and we’re doing it again in 2024 so we hope that YOU’ll be
joining us then, too!
WHAT: A “hybrid” Service (interpreters will be in person AND visible on Zoom
to those who can’t join us in the Sanctuary) with a full reading from Megillat
Esther (Yes, it’s the whole Megillah! <groan>), and a Shpiel (skit), too!
WHEN: Services start at 7:45 PM EDT (GMT-5) on Purim Night, Saturday, March
23rd
WHERE: Town & Village (T&V) Synagogue (www.tandv.org), 334 East 14th Street,
between 1st and 2nd Avenues in Manhattan…or on your nearest Zoom-capable
device (For security reasons, meeting information will be sent out a few days
beforehand to those who’ve responded in advance as shown below)
WHO: Jon Lamberton and Bram Weiser, with Aleksandr Rozentsvit, and their work
will be underwritten thanks to UJA-Federation of New York’s Jewish Community
Deaf Interpreter Fund
