DrayMakhers March: Humor and Games

Join KlezCalifornia every month for an hour of community culture building, hosted by Evie Groch. We are blending the best of our endeavors to create a gathering of those who thrive on Jewish humor and those who enjoy being challenged by Jewish-themed games. During the first 30 minutes, we will deliver laughs at shared jokes and visual humor while the second 30 minutes will challenge your wits. Come join us for fun and challenges. Be ready to participate (with your video turned on) and to laugh! 

For the next event, March 9: come prepared with five Jewish jokes or riddles to share, and (if you like) a Jewish-themed game. Be ready to participate unmasked, with your video on, and to laugh!

If you have any questions: contact coordinator Evie Groch.

To register, scroll down to the bottom of this page and complete the registration. Registration ends 12noon Pacific Time the day of the event. After that time, write nu@klezcalifornia.org; we cannot promise to notice your email if you contact us after the deadline. Those who register by the deadline will receive sign-in info by 2pm Pacific Time. If you have not heard by then, write a.s.a.p. to nu@klezcalifornia.org. Please do not wait until just before the event begins to notice whether you have the sign-in info. Look up your local time for the event HERE.

Participants are expected to have their video turned on, as this is a social event at which we want to see each other. Registering gives KlezCalifornia permission to take still images and use them for educational or other organizational purposes. 

To keep you informed, we enroll registrants in our free monthly newsletter which includes klezmer and Yiddish culture events in the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond. You may unsubscribe at any time. KlezCalifornia does not share its email lists with other organizations.

The event is free, however donations of any amount (whatever you can afford) are needed to enable KlezCalifornia to continue to connect you with Yiddish culture. Gifts are tax-deductible.

Definition: In a cultural community like ours, we find lots of gantze makhers, (“big shots”; gantse = complete/entire; makhers = big shots, fixers). If we sort ourselves into three specific groups that offer a mixture of laughter, appreciation of cuisine, and playtime, we come up with DrayMakhers (dray = three). What a mekhaye (pleasure/delight) to be part of the DrayMakhers!
