This year InterfaithFamily/Atlanta hosted our SECOND annual Promukkah: Prom-themed Hannukah party in our Ponce City Market office! This was the social event of the season! The evening was a blast with hip dance music spun by DJ Awesome (Gabe) of the Atlanta Jewish Music Festival, a potato latke tasting station, community candle lighting, a corsage/boutonniere making station, a very, very popular photo booth (with take home photo magnets), vintage prom-themed movies and a fabulous performance by members of the Roxie Roz gang.
