Purim<\/span><\/h3>\n

Purim is always a celebration on Vanderbilt’s campus.\u00a0Purim is celebrated with a public reading of the Book of Esther (Megillat Esther<\/em>), which tells the story of the holiday.\u00a0 In addition to reading the\u00a0Megillah<\/em>, celebrants dress in costumes, have festive parties, perform “Purim-spiels,” silly theatrical adaptations of the story of the\u00a0Megillah<\/em>, send baskets of food (mishloach manot<\/em>) to friends, give gifts to the poor (matanot l’evyonim<\/em>), and eating Hamantaschen, a three-cornered pastry.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Previous Purim events have included Hamantaschen Hotwheels, a lip sync battle, and Purim Family Feud Shabbat.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n
