ROSH HASHANAH 2018
FULL SCHEDULE September 8 - 10, 2018
Let's hit the road - to celebrate Artocade, Rosh Hashanah, Havdalah, the Trinidad Lounge, Cardango, Temple Aaron and weekend fun in Trinidad, Colorado!
(Kinda like a Jewish Mardi Gras – a big party before we have to get serious.)
We'll travel by caravan to the end of the Santa Fe Trail just in time for the weekend of the Artocade parade and Rodney's Cardango Gala (illuminated circus, funk band, samba, taiko, firecracker hat dance and of course, brilliantly eccentric art cars).
Temple Aaron will host us for a charming and lyrical pre-New Year meal with music and stories, and we'll welcome the moon and stars with a whiskey havdalah ceremony.
Perhaps we'll do a detour or two to see the cutting-edge projects on tap from our favorite historic preservationist as well as the Corazon de Trinidad Creative District.
For your convenience, you can also register for Rosh Hashanah services on Sept 9-10. If you will stay for services, you may want to take advantage of the package deal including two nights of discounted lodging at La Quinta. Detailed schedule is below.
Let's go!
