Description

Well, I don't know about you, but when I want to celebrate a holiday in March, be it Purim or even St. Patrick's Day, there's usually one place that fits the bill like no other...a Synagogue!! (Um, what's that again?)

New York's Tifereth Israel-Town & Village (T&V) Synagogue (www.tandv.org) invites you to join us on Purim Night, Wednesday, March 7th, for an ASL-interpreted Service, a full reading of Megillat Esther...and did I mention fun?! (For those so inclined, costumes are heartily encouraged, too!)

Services will begin at 6:15 PM at 334 East 14th Street, between 1st and 2nd Avenues in Manhattan, and our team of Deaf and hearing interpreters will again include Cathy Markland, Christopher Tester and Bram Weiser.

...and then come back again on Saturday morning, March 17th (oh, right, St. Patrick's Day!) for an ASL-interpreted Shabbat Service with full readings from the Torah and Haftorah (Prophets), which will be held from 10:00 AM -- 12:30 PM. Our interpreters will be Jessica Ames and Naomi Brunnlehrman.

On that date, a Kiddush (refreshments and social hour) will follow Services, and all are welcome to participate! (Please note: Out of respect for Shabbat, pen, paper and electronic devices cannot be used at T&V on Saturday morning.)

For additional information, please contact Bram Weiser at bramweiser@usa.net or (212) 677-0368v.

Thanks, and we'll hope to see you there!

(Schedule is subject to change.)

P.S. Additional dates for more monthly ASL-interpreted Services and events at T&V are being planned now, so keep your eyes peeled for future announcements!

P.P.S. ASL interpreters are available at T&V when requests are made in advance. Please contact Bram (bramweiser@usa.net) for more information.
