PJ Library Challah in Pajamas
Thursday, February 27
6:30 pm - 8:00 pm (EST)
What’s cozier than a pajama party? A challah in pajamas party for the whole family! Put on your comfiest pajamas and get ready to connect, create, and give back to the community. Together, we’ll roll, knead, and shape challah dough, guided by the inspiring Challah Back Girls™, a sibling-run business that uses challah as a symbol of unity to promote justice and compassion. After that, settle in for a snuggly, family-friendly dinner, and let PJ Library whisk you away with their favorite bedtime stories—full of warmth, imagination, and new storybook characters your kids will adore!
Registration: $36 per family
In the spirit of giving, we’re partnering with Federation’s Center for Volunteerism and invite each family to bring a new pair of pajamas to donate to a child in need, along with gently used PJ Library books.
Your $36 registration fee supports the UJA Campaign, helping to fund vital programs that uplift families and communities. Join us for an evening filled with creativity, kindness, and unforgettable memories with the ones you love!

Security at Federation Events
The Gloria and Jesse Weissberg Community Security Initiative (CSI) is coordinating all security with local, county, and state law enforcement. At every Federation event, all available resources are utilized to ensure your safety. Important items of note:
- Bag policy: Backpacks, luggage, and large purses are not permitted at events. We encourage you not to bring a bag, if possible, or to bring a very small bag. All bags may be subject to search.
- Additional security measures: Additional security procedures may be implemented (e.g. metal detectors) as needed.
- Social media protocol: We ask you not to share the location of a Federation event prior to or during the event and to refrain from posting about a Federation activity until after it has ended, and the site is clear of attendees.
Building an inclusive community is a priority. Please email [email protected] to let us know if you require an accommodation to meaningfully participate in an event. One of our Federation professionals will reach out to you to learn more.
