Spend Chanukah in The Village with heartwarming stories from the award-winning book, WINTER BLESSINGS—Sat Dec 4, Sun Dec 5

You don't have to be Jewish to enjoy visiting The Village for Chanukah. Warm lights from holiday candles will always lift the heart.Join Izzy Abrahmson for a live interactive author visit with stories (and perhaps a song*). Winter Blessings was a Finalist for The National Jewish Book Award for Family Literature. "The Village is snuggled in an indeterminate past that never was but certainly should have been, a past filled with love, humor, adventures and more than occasional misadventures. And when you go, be sure to bring the kids." – Times of IsraelWho invented the first Hanukkah present? How did Muddle nearly destroy the village? And what are “The Lethal Latkes?” (A latke is a potato pancake. Think McDonald's hash browns, but better.)In addition to being an author Izzy is a professional storyteller, and plays a mean Klezmer harmonica, so the program will be entertaining and engaging. Adults will enjoy this program, as will families with children (ages 7-107).And, as Reb Gold says, “Visiting our village is like eating rye bread, you don’t need to be Jewish to enjoy yourself.”"Even over ZOOM, it felt personable.... I laughed a lot and forgot about the rest of the world for a while. " – David StrasslerIzzy was on tour in Europe when the pandemic struck. Although in-person events are still uncertain, he decided that at a time like this everyone needs these stories.So, he’s using 21st century technology to bring smiles with timeless tales of love into people’s homes by scheduling convenient matinee and evening performances for time zones around the world.Izzy Abrahmson’s Village Life programs are live and interactive events – not recorded – that blend storytelling, reading, music and conversation with laughter.Izzy Abrahmson is the pen name for Audie-audiobook Award nominated storyteller and author Mark Binder.
