OutRighteous Purim - 2024!

Come connect, shake it, laugh, celebrate and support Jewish community at this special Co/Lab event.  This has been a profoundly difficult time in our community, but even at such times - especially at such times - we have to discover joy.  This is a night of unity, celebration and welcoming.  Proceeds go toward supporting Co/Lab in its efforts to open new doors to Jewish learning and engagement - and a portion of this year's proceeds will go to the PDX Housing Solidarity Project.

Expect Music, drinks, snack-y food and entertainment to boot: a Purim inspired DRAG SHOW featuring amateur drag artists from the community and pro drag artists Poly Poptart (IG @polypoptart).  You are welcome - and encouraged - to bring kids (who must be accompanied by an adult)  to the event but note that (1) alcohol is served by bartenders on site and (2) sometime after 8pm the entertainment will take a more grown-up turn! 

Here's the schedule:

7pm Music, drinks, conversation with all the fabulous people.

7:30pm Havdalah to kiss goodbye Shabbat and kiss hello our evening of celebration.

8pm Drag show fun begins

then our DJ  takes over!....we eat, drink, dance, and go wild.  It is Purim, after all.

We  need volunteers to help on the day of the event and will have a sign-up soon.  Some volunteer roles get you a free ticket!  If you would like to take advantage of this offer, email Rochelle  at rochelle.socialpdx@gmail.com.   

No one will be turned away for lack of funds.  Email rabbijosh@colabpdx.org if finances are a problem. 

* the actual holy day of Purim is the weekend before and that is when you will find the synagogue celebrations.  Go do that, and then come join us for the real party.
