From apples and honey to candles and celebration, the Jewish year is full of moments that bring us together. Explore the holidays we celebrate in Miami—rich in meaning, joy, and community for all ages.


The Jewish calendar comes to life through holidays like Hanukkah, Purim, and Passover—each offering its own rhythm, meaning, and joy. Here is where you’ll find everything going on, including celebrations, learning opportunities, and ways to connect.
Here’s where you’ll find everything happening for Purim—events, parties, programs, and ways to celebrate together. Come in costume, bring your friends, make some noise, and give a little joy along the way. Trust us… missing Purim is not an option.
Mishloach Manot is a Purim tradition rooted in connection—a small, joyful surprise that reminds us we are seen and that we belong.The mitzvah serves two purposes: strengthening love and harmony within our community, and ensuring that even as we celebrate, we care for those who may need extra support.Through our partnership with JCS, this commitment goes further. All extra Mishloach Manot are donated, allowing the joy of Purim to extend beyond the moment a gift is received and ensuring no one is left out.

The Center's Purim Carnival is where costumes shine and fun takes center stage. With games, prizes, music, and plenty of hamantaschen-fueled energy, it’s a celebration made for kids, families, and anyone who loves a good party. Come ready to play, laugh, and celebrate Purim in the most joyful way possible.
Feeling lucky? Don’t miss our Purim raffles, where fun meets a little friendly competition. With great prizes up for grabs and winners announced during the celebration, this is one more reason to join the fun. Buy early and save!

Lights, camera, action! Join us for a Purim Megillah Reading with a Broadway-inspired spiel that brings the story of Esther to life with music, humor, and lots of Purim spirit. Come in costume, bring your groggers, and celebrate together as a community, then stick around for Purim After Hours—an adults-only celebration with festive drinks, music, and grown-up fun.
During our Megillah Reading, don’t miss out on the opportunity to perform the mitzvah of Matanot La’Evyonim. We’ll be collecting donations to be split between JCS and the Gordon Scholarship Fund. And we’re making it so easy… when we come around, just tap your phone and you’re done—one little tap, one big mitzvah!
