Save the date Lynnwood public menorah lighting set for Dec. 21

The Lynnwood Public Menorah Lighting and Celebration of Hanukkah is set for December 21 at 4 p. m. at the Lynnwood City Center Light Rail Station. This festive gathering will feature a 9-foot Menorah, holiday treats, hot drinks, face painting, balloon twisting, personal Menorah kits, and live music. The “Gelt Drop,” which showers chocolate coins from a fire truck, is expected to delight children attending the event.

The celebration, now in its 14th year, is sponsored by the Chabad Jewish Center of Snohomish County, reflecting the organization’s commitment to promoting Jewish culture and community engagement. This year's event will not only serve as a celebration of Hanukkah but also strengthen community ties among attendees. Organizers encourage donations to support the nonprofit newsroom covering local events. More information can be found at snohaimish. com/light.
