Sip in the Sukkah

What does it mean to make space for yourself, the people you care about, and the world around you?

Gather with other young professionals at Wade Oval for Sip in the Sukkah, a relaxed afternoon to hang out, enjoy cider and mocktails, and experience the Sukkot holiday in Sukkah Village.

Sukkot is the Jewish harvest festival, a time to gather in celebration with gratitude. A sukkah is a temporary outdoor structure built for Sukkot, where people eat, gather, and reflect on the beauty and uncertainty of life . Grab a drink, settle into the sukkah, and enjoy a Sip of Learning as we explore Sukkot and what this ancient holiday can teach us about making space for ourselves and others today.

Sukkah Village features three unique sukkot, including two smaller sukkot and one large 16x24-foot sukkah, each designed to spark reflection and conversation about what it means to honor yourself, your family, and the world around you.

Good to know: jHUB’s family Sukkah Village program will wrap up just as Sip in the Sukkah begins. Look for jHUB staff nearby who will be gathering young professionals and directing you to the separate event.

If you'd like to explore Sukkah Village beyond this event, the installation will be open to the public throughout the holiday, September 26–October 2.

jHUB is proud to create Sukkah Village in partnership with University Circle Inc. for all of Cleveland to enjoy.
