Chestnut Hill will be the site of an immersive Hanukkah experience starting Tuesday as the community’s annual menorah lighting ceremony celebrates the eight-day Festival of Lights.
The Jewish holiday, which marks the rededication of the Temple after it was defiled in Jerusalem, begins on the evening of Thursday, Dec. 7 and ends at dusk on Friday, Dec. 15.
The Chestnut Hill event is a two-day Hanukkah Wonderland celebration at Cliff Park, near Cresheim Valley Drive. The event, scheduled for 3:30 to 5:30 p.m., Tuesday, Dec. 12 and Wednesday, Dec. 13, is presented by Chabad-Lubavitch of Northwest Philadelphia.
The celebration will include music, Hanukkah-themed science experiments for the kids, dreidel games, Menorah sand art and a Toddler Zone. Refreshments to be served include hot latkes and donuts.
The event is free, but residents must rsvp at chabadnwp.org. For more information, call 267-978-9682 or email rabbig@chabadnwp.org. Cliff Park is at 7630 Germantown Ave.
