Chag Purim Sameach!

Starting tonight through tomorrow night, March 2-3, 2026. What better way to celebrate Purim than with hamantaschen! (like shown here)

For twenty years, 1879 to 1898 (as we have found so far), the Jews in Leadville celebrated Purim with annual Purim balls. They were THE Jewish event of the year where as many as hundreds of people attended most years, including non Jews. The Temple Israel Museum has done extensive research compiling information about Purim and the Purim Balls, which is available on our website.
