KleinLife recently invited the community to celebrate the Jewish holiday of Purim at a special event filled with music, dancing, ethnic foods, beads and more. Purim is a Jewish holiday that commemorates saving the Jewish people from Haman, a Persian empire official who was planning to kill all the Jews as recounted in the biblical Book of Esther.
