Apples & Honey

Annual Fall Holiday Celebration

Sunday, September 25, 2011
12:00 - 3:00 p.m.
at the JCC

              Apples & Honey, an annual family event that celebrates the Jewish fall holidays, is a popular community wide event that takes place every year at the Jewish Community Center of Greater Ann Arbor. Everyone is invited for this great event!

ADMISSION: JCC Members: $10 per family or $3 per person
Non-Members: $12 per family or $5 per person

Participants are able to taste apples and honey, symbolic of the New Year. There are many children's activities including bouncers, games, shofar blowing and arts and crafts. Clowns and jugglers entertain guests while painting faces and making balloon animals. Israeli food, kosher baked goods and lunch are available for purchase along with gifts and Judaica items.

This program brings together many local Jewish organizations to provide information about their purpose and to educate participants about the upcoming holidays: Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year; Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement; and Sukkot, the fall harvest festival. 

The Newcomers' Booth offers information about Ann Arbor and the Ann Arbor Jewish community, gifts, coupons and a chance to meet others who have recently moved to the area. Members of the JCC and the Jewish Federation boards as well as members from all other Jewish organizations welcome newcomers to our community.
