ISRAEL AT 70

Kickoff Hafla (celebration)

Free and open to the community but space is limited.

Get Involved!  Volunteers Needed!

  • Cook alongside our Israeli guests in preparing traditional dishes influenced by their Iraqi, Tunisian and Kurdish heritage
  • Create Israel in the Berkshires by helping to set up and serve during the event
  • Local hosts needed to provide our guests overnight hospitality
  • Bring your instrument or grab a doumbek (provided) and join Israeli musicians
