Event Details

The City of Acworth will hold a Menorah Lighting Ceremony on the first night of Chanukah, Thursday, December 10 at 6:00 p.m. This year’s ceremony will be held at Logan Farm Park, 4405 Cherokee Street. To maintain social distance, the City of Acworth askes that all attendees stay in or next to their vehicle during the ceremony.

The eight day Jewish holiday commemorates the Jewish Maccabees’ military victory over Syrian-Greek oppression more than 2,000 years ago.  During Hanukkah, Jews across the world celebrate the miracle of light that burnt for eight days out of a single-days-worth of oil found in the Temple.  One Hanukkah candle is lit the first night and an additional candle is lit each successive night.  The holiday is a celebration of religious freedom and hope.
