Mimouna: A Moroccan Jewish Celebration

Celebrate the end of Passover and return to eating chametz. All are welcome!

This event has been cancelled. Thank you for your interest.

 

JIMENA, in partnership with Value Culture and the JCCSF, invite Jewish young adults from all backgrounds to join us for a Mimouna celebration at Manny’s! Mimouna is a traditional festival celebrated by Moroccan Jews the day after Passover, marking the return to eating chametz (leavened foods). Families open their homes to neighbors and friends and fill their kitchen tables with an abundance of delicious sweets symbolizing fertility, joy, success, health and prosperity. Mimouna is the beginning of the spring season and a time to celebrate friendship, community, coexistence, luck and good fortune.
