Hanukkah on the Hoan

MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin– The Daniel M. Hoan Memorial Bridge will be lit as a menorah each night of Hanukkah in partnership with Light The Hoan. The Milwaukee Jewish Federation encourages everyone to light their menorahs alongside us each night.

“Lighting the Hoan Bridge for Hanukkah is a symbol of the Milwaukee Jewish Federation’s commitment to being a guiding light for those in need,” according to organizers at Milwaukee Jewish Federation. “From providing statewide security for Jewish institutions to offering aid to those in crisis around the world, supporting the Milwaukee Jewish Federation this Hanukkah helps empower critical programs that can uplift lives. We invite everyone in the Milwaukee area to join together to watch this meaningful light display on the Hoan.”
