FROM THE PUBLISHER

A Year of Resilience, Connection and Hope

A

s we present the 2026 edition of SOURCE: Annual Guide to Jewish Living in Northeast Ohio, we are reminded once again of the incredible resilience and vibrancy of our community. This guide serves as your roadmap to Jewish life – an invaluable resource to help you connect with agencies, organizations and businesses that enrich our shared experience. This year has been marked by both challenges and triumphs. Across Cleveland and beyond, we’ve witnessed acts of courage, creativity and compassion that reflect the very best of our community. From celebrating milestones at local synagogues and schools to supporting neighbors in need, Jewish Cleveland continues to stand strong, united and engaged. Our cover photo captures a moment of profound significance – the emotional response of two Israeli women as they watch the live broadcast of the last of the living hostages being released from Hamas captivity on Oct. 1 , 0 . It is a powerful reminder of the resilience of the Jewish people worldwide, the value of hope and the enduring strength found in community and family. As you e plore the listings in this guide, you’ll find

that the agencies and organizations featured here are more than service providers – they are pillars of support, culture and connection. They represent the breadth of Jewish life in Northeast Ohio, from education and social services to arts, culture and business. We hope this guide will inspire you to deepen your involvement, explore new opportunities and discover the many ways you can contribute to the life of our community. Looking ahead to 2026, our hope is that we continue to nurture these connections, celebrate our shared heritage and support one another through life’s challenges and joys. Just as the women on our cover watched history unfold with hope in their hearts, we too look forward with optimism, knowing that our collective strength will guide us into the year ahead. We encourage you to keep this guide close, not just as a directory, but as a tool for engagement, inspiration and connection. Thank you for being a part of Jewish Cleveland – and for helping make our community stronger, kinder and more vibrant every day.

HOLIDAYS 2026, 5786 – 5787

JEWISH HOLIDAYS and noteworthy dates TU B’SHEVAT

Sunday, Feb. 1 (begins at sunset) Monday, Feb. 2 (ends at nightfall) Tu b’Shevat, the 15th of Shevat on the Jewish calendar, is the day that marks the beginning of a “new year” for trees. This is the season in which the earliest-blooming trees in the Land of Israel emerge from their winter sleep and begin a new fruit-bearing cycle. We mark the day of Tu b’Shevat by eating fruit, particularly the kinds singled out by the Torah in its praise of the bounty of the Holy Land: grapes, figs, pomegranates, olives and dates. On this day, we remember that “man is a tree of the field” ( euteronomy 0 19) and reflect on the lessons we can derive from our botanical analogue.

PURIM

Monday, March 2 (begins at sunset) Tuesday, March 3 (ends at nightfall) The jolly festival of Purim is celebrated every year on the 14th of the Hebrew month of Adar (late winter early spring). It commemorates the salvation of the Jewish people in ancient ersia from Haman’s plot “to destroy, kill and annihilate all the Jews, young and old, infants and women, in a single day,” as recorded in the egillah (book of Esther).

PASSOVER

Wednesday, April 1 (begins at sunset) Thursday, April 9 (ends at nightfall) The eight-day festival of Passover is celebrated in the early spring, from the 15th through the nd of the Hebrew month of issan. It commemorates the emancipation of the Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt. By following the rituals of assover, we have the ability to relive and experience the true freedom that our ancestors gained.

YOM HASHOAH

SHAVUOT

Thursday, May 21 (begins at sunset) Saturday, May 23 (ends at nightfall) Shavuot coincides with the date that God gave the Torah to the Jewish people at Mount Sinai more than , 00 years ago. It comes after 9 days of eager counting, as we prepared ourselves for this special day. It is celebrated by lighting candles, staying up all night to learn Torah, hearing the reading of the Ten Commandments in synagogue, feasting on dairy foods and more.

12 SOURCE 2026


HOLIDAYS 2026, 5786 – 5787 TISHA B’AV

Wednesday, July 22 (begins at sunset) Thursday, July 23 (ends at nightfall) The Three Weeks is an annual mourning period that falls in the summer during which we do not cut our hair, purchase new clothes, listen to music or hold weddings. It reaches its climax and concludes with the fast of the ninth of Av, the date when both Holy Temples were set aflame. This is the saddest day of the Jewish calendar, and it is also the date that many other tragedies befell our people. The fast of Tisha b’Av begins at sunset the previous evening. Besides fasting, we abstain from additional pleasures: washing, applying lotions or creams, wearing leather shoes and marital relations. Until midday, we sit on the floor or on low stools.

ROSH HASHANAH

Friday, Sept. 11 (begins at sunset) Sunday, Sept. 13 (ends at nightfall) Rosh Hashanah is the birthday of the universe, the day G-d created Adam and Eve, and it’s celebrated as the head of the Jewish year. It’s celebrated with candlelighting in the evenings, festive meals with sweet delicacies during the night and day, prayer services that include the sounding of the ram’s horn (shofar) on both mornings and desisting from creative work.

YOM KIPPUR

Sunday, Sept. 20 (begins at sunset) Monday, Sept. 21 (ends at nightfall) Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the year – the day on which we are closest to God and to the quintessence of our own souls. It is the Day of Atonement – “For on this day He will forgive you, to purify you, that you be cleansed from all your sins before God” (Leviticus 16:30). For nearly 26 hours – from several minutes before sunset on 9 Tishrei to after nightfall on 10 Tishrei – we “afflict our souls,” or abstain from food and drink, do not wash or anoint our bodies, do not wear leather footwear and abstain from marital relations.

SUKKOT

Friday, Sept. 25 (begins at sunset) Friday, Oct. 2 (ends at nightfall) For 40 years, as our ancestors traversed the Sinai Desert, following the Exodus from Egypt, miraculous “clouds of glory” surrounded and hovered over them, shielding them from the dangers and discomforts of the desert. Ever since, we remember God’s kindness and reaffirm our trust in His providence by dwelling in a sukkah – a hut of temporary construction with a roof covering of branches – for the duration of the Sukkot festival (on the Jewish calendar Tishrei 15-21). For seven days and nights, we eat all our meals in the sukkah and otherwise regard it as our home.

SHEMINI ATZERET / SIMCHAT TORAH Friday, Oct. 2 (begins at sunset) Sunday, Oct. 4 (ends at nightfall)

The holiday of Sukkot is followed by an independent holiday called Shemini Atzeret. In Israel, this is a one-day holiday; in the Diaspora, it is a two-day holiday, and the second day is known as Simchat Torah. This holiday is characterized by utterly unbridled joy, which surpasses even the joy of Sukkot. The joy reaches its climax on Simchat Torah, when we celebrate the conclusion – and restart – of the annual Torah-reading cycle.

CHANUKAH

Friday, Dec. 4 (begins at sunset) Saturday, Dec. 12 (ends at nightfall) Chanukah is the Jewish eight-day, wintertime “festival of lights,” celebrated with a nightly menorah lighting, special prayers and fried foods. At the heart of the festival is the nightly menorah lighting. The menorah holds nine flames, one of which is the shamash (“attendant”), which is used to kindle the other eight lights. On the first night, we light just one flame. On the second night, an additional flame is lit. By the eighth night of Chanukah, all eight lights are kindled. Special blessings are recited, often to a traditional melody, before the menorah is lit, and traditional songs are sung afterward.
