Join us for BHBE’s 68th Annual Gala – Maxwell Street Memories – a tribute to Maxwell Street Market and Jewish Chicago in the early 20th Century.
Grab your pocket watches and newsie caps. Throw on your babushkas and lace-up boots. Or just come in your summer best to enjoy all the hustle and bustle of this famous Chicago market in its heyday.
Munch on a Polish, sip on a fountain soda, and when the mood strikes, grab your best guy or gal and dance to the old-world swing and sway of the famous Maxwell Street Klezmer Band. Challenge a friend to a game of checkers and create your own Maxwell Street memories in our photo booth.
Take an exciting trip back in time for just one night – get your tickets today!
We’ll have a wonderful evening with dinner and dancing, and you’ll receive our Membership Book, complete with the shul directory, tributes to your favorite clergy and staff, and ads that you sell to your favorite businesses or purchase yourself.
