At the conclusion of Passover, Moroccan and other North African communities traditionally host a Mimouna, a neighborly celebration marking the return to consuming leavened products while eating symbolic foods to bring good luck in the coming year.
This year Kanisse is thrilled to be partnering with Kane Street Synagogue and the Jewish Agency for Israel to celebrate Mimouna across the larger Jewish community. The evening will include a special performance of Electric Mimouna, a project blending Moroccan Arabic and Hebrew songs, reimagined covers, and biblical texts in a joyful, live music experience by artists Chanan Ben Simon and Guy Barash.
Reconnect after Passover with old friends and new, explore the traditions of the Moroccan Jewish community, and enjoy moufleta(Moroccan dessert crepes) along with other holiday delicacies in this epic celebration!
