Shavuot, also known as the Feast of Weeks, is celebrated exactly 50 days after Passover. It is a time of commemoration and gratitude for the receiving of the Torah, which contains the sacred teachings and commandments that guide the Jewish people. During this holiday, we express our appreciation for the gift of wisdom, tradition, and divine connection that the Torah represents.

Celebrate with Meaningful Rituals

As part of our Shavuot party, we will engage in various customs and traditions that are synonymous with this holiday.
