Prosserman Jewish Community Centre
Join the vibrant celebration of 8 Gays of Chanukah on Sunday, December 15, 2024, from 7 PM to 10 PM EST at the Prosserman Jewish Community Centre. This exciting event brings together the LGBTQ+ community and allies for an unforgettable evening of fun, laughter, and Chanukah spirit. 8 Gays of Chanukah promises a night filled with engaging performances, inspiring stories, and the warmth of community connection. Attendees can expect a unique blend of entertainment that highlights the diversity and richness of Jewish culture, while also celebrating LGBTQ+ identities. It’s a great opportunity to meet new friends, reconnect with familiar faces, and enjoy an evening that embraces love, acceptance, and togetherness.
Gila Münster, Toronto’s premiere Jewish drag queen entertainer, has teamed up with singer-songwriter Yan Simon and professional actress Sarah Freia on the 6th annual “8 Gays of Channukah” queer Jewish event. Between them, they represent Canadian and Israeli Sephardi, Ashkenazi, and Mizrahi Jewish identities across the 2SLGBTQIA+ spectrum. Gila, Yan, and Sarah were inspired by the historical tale of Channukah, in which a small Jewish minority held on to their identity and pushed back against oppression. This event is an opportunity for the three queer Jewish artists to share their stories directly with their community in an honest storytelling presentation that hopes to inspire empathy and understanding.
This year’s event will feature a lineup of talented performers and speakers who will share their experiences, creativity, and humour, making for a delightful night you won’t want to miss. In addition to the performances, there will be traditional Chanukah treats, games, and activities, ensuring that everyone has a chance to participate in the festive fun.
This event is not only a celebration of Chanukah but also a reminder of the importance of community, acceptance, and love during the holiday season. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to celebrate in a vibrant, inclusive environment. Grab your friends and family and come together to enjoy a night of joy and laughter at 8 Gays of Chanukah!
