Enjoy skyline views while gliding around the ice rink at the Seaport for Chanukah on Ice on Sunday, December 18. The event also includes themed crafts, latkes, sufganiyot, live music from students of the FiDi Hebrew School and the carving of a 7-foot-tall ice menorah.
In addition to admiring the skyline, you can also admire a a 15-foot nautical-themed menorah designed by conceptual artist Yitzchok Moully on the Heineken Riverdeck on the north side of Pier 17. Dubbed "The Pop Art Rabbi," Moully’s work distills ethereal Chassidic concepts into relatable works of art. The menorah is made with stainless steel and evokes an image of a sail, an homage to the Seaport’s storied history as a booming maritime destination. An additional menorah will also be placed on Fulton and Water Streets for the duration of Chanukah.
Chabad of Wall Street and the Jewish Learning Experience are hosting the event with The Howard Hughes Corporation. Activites are free and open to the public.
