West End Ave closed for Dancing!

Simchat Torah at Chabad Lubavitch of Manhattan Beach is a memorable event that attracts hundreds of Russian and American, affiliated and unaffiliated Jewish families.

The Simchat Torah Street Party which was previously held on Corbin Pl, outside the previous Chabad Synagogue has now moved to 134 West End Ave, facing the NEW Chabad Synagogue and Community Center.

“It is great to see everyone coming together as a community to join in this celebration of Jewish Pride”, said Rabbi Avrohom Winner, Director of the Chabad.

Rabbi Winner as the Chabad representative in this part of Brooklyn arranged for Chabad Lubavitch Yeshivah students to walk from Crown Heights and to bring the holiday joy and festivities to all the other local synagogues as well. Including; the Sefardic Synagogue – Ohel David and Shlomo, the Manhattan Beach Jewish Center and the Congregation Shaarey Torah.

“A well-deserved thank you to the Yeshivah students for walking the many hours to other end of Brooklyn bringing all this joy and happiness and a great appreciation to the officers from the 61 pct. for blocking off the street and making it a safe environment for the children”, remarked the Rabbi.

“We love coming here, there isn’t a more exciting and joyous celebration for Simchat Torah then at the Chabad, they just know how to party”, commented Olga.

The program included: celebrating, dancing with the Torah on the Street, special separate circle for women and unique program for children, each child received their own Simchat Torah full color flag.
