In pictures: Young UJIA’s annual Purim party
Up to 650 Jewish professionals glowed in the dark with ultra-violet faces during Young UJIA’s annual Purim party at The Anthologist on Gresham Street, near Bank station.
The GLOW party, which went in to the early hours, and of which Jewish News was media partner, saw hundreds of 21-35-year olds come together to hear top DJ Josh White, see spectacular light shows,
Hamantaschen (the triangular-shaped filled pastries associated with the holiday) and show off their glow sticks. The night also raised a fabulous 14,800 for charitable projects in Israel and youth engagement work in the UK . “What an amazing night that was,” said organiser Frankie Stanton.
“It was an incredible event with so many young Jewish professionals, not only celebrating but supporting a really worthy cause. Bring on Purim 2017!”
