Chrismukkah in Tel Aviv

When Christmas meets Hanukkah

​(Communicated by the Mayor's office of Tel Aviv-Yaffo)

The Neve Sha'anan neighborhood was originally designed in a street grid emulating  a Menorah (candelabrum). During 2 nights in December (22^nd and 24^th), the neighborhood will recreate the original Menorah and illuminate the multicultural abundance and complexity of the neighborhood with dozens of performances, light installations and projections, music performances, food offerings, tours, parties, and engaged-art in public and private spaces.

December 22^nd and 24^th, 2016, 18:00-23:00.

Light-pipes at the Tel Aviv Port – Menorah Art Installation

From afar it looks like an alley way lit with Christmas lights, but as you draw closer you will see dozens of clear pipes covered with shining lights with thousands of rolling balls, all creating together a vast Hanukka Menorah that will be lit during the Hanukka nights.
