Bringing Jewish culture, music, food, and more, Rabbis Alter Korf and Mendel Lebovics said this will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“We feel it’s just the right thing for the community now,” Korf said. “It’s just the right vibe, the right energy that the Jewish community needs.”\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lebovics agrees and said community members are looking for ways to express their Jewish pride.<\/p>\n
“It’s our job to say, ‘We’re here, we’re here to stay, and we’re going to be proud of who we are,'” he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The event isn’t only for people who are Jewish \u2014 it’s for everyone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That’s part of the reason Korf said they’re hosting the party at The Floridian Social.<\/p>\n
“Our goal is that this Jewish experience would make everybody inside here feel like part of one big family,” he said.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
An unforgettable experience is what Korf said they’re looking to create.\u00a0<\/p>\n
With the people they’re bringing in and the venue they’ve chosen, he has no doubt they’ll achieve their goals.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“It’s not an intellectual experience, it’s not a class, it’s not a lecture,” he said. “This is a moment to feel it in your bones.”<\/p>\n
