Celebrate the bright
lights of Hanukkah

Temple Emanu-El is throwing a party to celebrate the beginning of Hanukkah, and everyone's invited.

The party begins at 5:30 p.m. Friday, featuring the lighting of family menorahs, a buffet supper, singing and story-telling by Noa Baum, a recipient of the City of Davis (Calif.) Arts Contract Grant.

Hanukkah celebrates the religious freedom won by the Maccabees, an army led by Judah Maccabee, over the Greek Syrians. The traditional lighting of the menorah commemorates the reclamation of the temple from the Syrians, and signifies the miraculous oil jug that lasted eight days to light the temple's menorah.

Tickets to the event are $15; $5 for children. Call 595-7521. Deadline is tomorrow.




The Divas, from left, are Carole Kai, Loyal Garner,
Nohelani Cypriano and Melveen Leed.
