Hanukkah Menorah lighting Milledgeville, GA- Friday December 25th, the Milledgeville community will continue embracing a tradition that began in 2020. To recognize the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah, a menorah has been installed on West Hancock Street in the plaza in front of The Local Yolkal Cafe.
Milledgeville resident, Allison Bloodworth spearheaded the fundraising effort in 2020 to purchase and place the nine-foot Menorah downtown on the Hancock Plaza. In an effort to move toward tolerance and diversity, this placement is extremely meaningful for the Jewish Community and our community as a whole. This is not a common occurrence in our state nor country. Supporting this tradition is an amazing opportunity to strengthen our community and show acceptance of all people.
The Menorah Lighting will take place at 6pm on West Hancock Street in front of The Local Yolkal Cafe. Anyone is welcome to attend. Rabbi Aaron Rubinstein from Congregation Sha’arey Israel and Rabbi Elizabeth Bahar from Temple Beth Israel in Macon will lead the group in prayer and song.
