During regular times, our building and grounds are home to a wide array of events, simchas, and activities. When conditions permit, we welcome the opportunity to host your event and have a variety of spaces that can serve as a venue for celebrations such as baby namings and brit milot, b'nai mitzvah receptions, birthday parties, and weddings. We can also accommodate private Shabbat dinners, concerts, lectures, professional conferences, and more.
