ZoomAnnual Pearl Street Menorah Lighting Goes Virtual
Join 500+ Jews of Boulder County to Light the Hanukkah Menorah in Unison!
BOULDER, CO, Nov. 13, 2020: For over 20 years, Boulder’s Jewish community has gathered on the Pearl Street Mall to light the largest Hanukkah menorah in the county. For the first time in the history of Boulder County, hundreds of Jews will Zoom together to kindle the menorah and bring the light of Hanukkah into all their homes and lives.
“The message of Hanukkah is the message of light. The nature of light is that it is always victorious over darkness. A small amount of light dispels a lot of darkness. Another act of goodness and kindness, another act of light, can make all the difference,” said Rabbi Pesach Scheiner, co-founder of the Boulder County Center for Judaism.
Steve Brodsky will lead the annual sing-along from his home. Josh Raderman will give instructions as he prepares his famous latkes, and Akiva Balter, founder of Gam Zoom Litova, is staying up late in her East coast home to host this historic celebration.
Please put December 10th at 5:30pm on your calendar so you don’t miss it.

And, if you sign up before December 4th, you will receive a Hanukkah-in-a-box full of holiday items courtesy of our generous sponsors. There will also be a special drawing for participating children.
This exciting event is hosted by the Boulder County Center for Judaism and sponsored by Andy and Audrey Franklin, the Boulder JCC, Boulder Jewish News, Caroline Bleicher of Re/MAX of Boulder, Hazel’s Beverage World, JEWISHcolorado, the Oreg Foundation, and Rhonda and Bruce Wildman, for whose support we are enormously grateful.
