Hanukkah & Kwanzaa Celebration of Lights

The Pittsboro Business Association, in partnership with Chatham County residents, invites you to the first Celebration of Lights. This event will celebrate the last night of Hanukkah  and the week of Kwanzaa.

It will take place Sunday, December 29th, 2019, from 4:30 pm. to 6 pm., on the northwest corner of the courthouse circle, by Pittsboro Toys, which is at 15 Hillsboro Street, Pittsboro.

This is an inter-faith, inter-cultural celebration of winter traditions around the light.

The evening will include:

• A Hanukkah book reading
• A presentation on the history and significance of Kwanzaa
• Jelly filled doughnuts (a Hanukkah tradition) made by Pittsboro’s The Phoenix Bakery especially for this celebration
• Lighting at dusk

Everyone is invited to bring your Menorah, Kinara, candle or whatever it is that symbolizes the light in your faith tradition or spiritual journey.
