What is happening?
Chabad of Petaluma opened its doors in October of 2015 to be a lighthouse offering points of connection to Jewish life through a smorgasbord of creative and meaningful programming. We will be celebrating a decade of community and honoring some of the amazing friends who helped us reach this Milestone.
Where will it take place?
The Gala will take place at Flying Cloud, a beautiful venue nestled in the hills on the outskirts of Petaluma.
Who is it for?
Everyone! Whether you've been involved from our humble beginnings or just discovered Chabad. If you never miss an event, or if you come once a year to the Menorah lighting. Or even if you are simply a fan who appreciates what Chabad does for the Petaluma community. And of course, certainly join us if you are friends, family, or colleagues of our distinguished honorees to pay tribute to them.
Is there an age limit?
Being that this will be an upscale formal evening, it is for ages 13+.
Is there a dress code?
Formal attire for a special evening.
What is included in the program?
Hors d'Oeuvres & schmoozing, a gourmet sit-down dinner, a live Klezmer band, a presentation and collaborative art piece by the Pop Art Rabbi, a silent auction, and hearing from our honorees and local dignitaries, a gratitude ceremony, and a silent auction.
I RSVP'd before the date change. Do I need to RSVP again?
You are good to go! If you previously weren't able to attend, and now you can, then please RSVP again here (contact us to convert a donation to a seat).
Unfortunately, I can't attend. How can I still participate?
We wish there was a magical date that worked for everyone. You can still be a part of the evening and recognize the community's achievements by placing a greeting in the beautiful Gala Journal.
What is the cost?
$72 a seat. We kept the attendance cost low as we wanted to keep it accessible to everyone. That being said, if you are able to, please consider a greeting in the Gala Journal or a donation to help us cover the cost of the evening and fuel our many programs.
What is the Gala Journal?
We will be printing a full color tribute journal. It is a great opportunity to write a congratulatory greeting to our honorees, Rabbi Dovid and Devorah, or the Chabad of Petaluma community.
It is also a fantastic way for businesses to show their support for the Jewish community.
How can I help?
Here are three ways to help. 1) Come! And invite your friends. 2) Support! Help us make it a magical evening. 3) If you have a connection to someone who can sponsor a prize for the silent auction, that would be super helpful. Please reach out first to check that it would fit in our auction categories.
I still have some questions. Whom can I contact?
Reach out to Rabbi Dovid or Devorah at: 707-559-8585
