Celebrate Yom Ha’Atzmaut in Miami With Your Jewish Community

Federation is partnering with local Jewish organizations to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the State of Israel with festivities across Miami-Dade County. To mark this milestone Yom Ha’Atzmaut, or Israel Independence Day, which falls on April 26, community events will take place April 25-30 — and everyone is invited! The celebrations will offer family fun, food and music at Miami's three Federation-supported JCCs: Alper JCC, Miami Beach JCC and Michael-Ann Russell JCC, including appearances by Israeli musical duo Yaoz Magenheim and Tsur Shoham, from Federation partner city Yerucham, who will perform popular Israeli songs on piano, flute and guitar; a cantorial concert of Israeli favorites in North Dade and a gala hosted by the Israeli community featuring Yardena Arzi.
