We are thrilled that so many young families joined us for two wonderful Purim celebrations last weekend. Following a spirited Megillah reading last Thursday evening, the entire congregation enjoyed a Family Purim Celebration at the Beach Bakery and Grand Cafe, including a Hamantaschen Bake. The children especially enjoyed creating delicious hamantaschen in the bakery's kitchen with a variety of exotic flavors!
On Sunday morning, the children flocked to Jack's House for a professionally-run Purim Carnival, with the help of our local BBYO teens. Everyone enjoyed the games and attractions, including two fun arts & crafts projects.
Our Appreciation

| | Local Pride (of the Irish) | | Our distinguished member, Westhampton Dunes Mayor Irwin Krasnow sports his Hampton Synagogue cap on Main Street at the WHB St. Patricks's Day Parade last weekend. We are only sad that he missed the corned beef and cabbage, shepherd's pie, and (green) Irish sodabread enjoyed at the kiddush! | | |

This Shabbat, March 21-22, they will officiate at Congregation Kehillath Jeshurun in Manhattan. In the past few weeks, they conducted services in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and Woodmere, New York.

The Manes Art center is the gift of our distinguished benefactor, Dr. Harvey Manes, a passionate collector of art for over 40 years. Dr. Manes sits on the Board of the Nassau County Museum of Art and has lent numerous works from his collection to notable museums, including the Museum of Contemporary Art (Chicago), Heckscher Museum, NCMA, Jewish Museum-NYC, and others.
The quality and breadth of the Manes Art Center collection features an eclectic collection of modern, contemporary, and old master artists, as well as sculptures. Artists in the collection include Andy Warhol, Basquiat, Koons, Salvador Dali, Roy Lichtenstein, Marc Chagall, Yaacov Agam, Jim Dine, among others.
On permanent view in the Barnet Family Chapel is the work of world-renowned artist, Dale Chihuly, who designed and created the Chapel’s Fiore windows that allow natural light to interact with the space in dynamic harmony, Eternal Light, and the only Menorah of Chihuly’s illustrious career.
