The Stanton Street Shul is a historic, intimate, and vibrant Orthodox congregation serving the diverse Jewish population in Lower Manhattan. We attract and welcome Jews of all religious, educational, and cultural backgrounds from the Lower East Side, Alphabet City, East and West Villages, Stuyvesant Town, and Tribeca.
Purim is coming up and there’s a lot going on at Stanton this year, with not one but THREE different megillah readings and our annual Purim Extravaganza and Talent Show.
Join us on Saturday night, March 15th, after Shabbat for one of two readings of Megillat Esther. Upstairs in the main sanctuary there will be a traditional reading while downstairs there will be a women’s megillah reading. If you’re interested in layning or want to find out more about the women’s reading, please send an email to stantonstreetwomen@gmail.com
Maariv and megillah readings will begin at 8:15pm.
After megillah reading, it’s time to party at our annual Purim Extravaganza and Talent Show! Food and drinks will be served. Talents will be shared. It will be a blast. Sign up to share your talent by clicking here. Registration is limited, and on a first come, first serve basis.
Finally, come back the next morning, Sunday, March 16th, for Shacharit services at 9:00am and another traditional megillah reading.
There will be hamantaschen!
Following a time honored Jewish tradition, this December 24th at 7pm The Stanton St. Shul will be having it’s annual Chinese Dinner an a Movie! This year we will be showing the award winning Israeli documentary “The Rabbi’s Daughter,” with a visit from filmmaker Racheli Vasserman herself!
The film is based on Vasserman’s personal experience growing up as the daughter of a modern orthodox Rabbi in the city of Givatayim. Through the eyes of three daughters of rabbis, the film raises several questions regarding relationships, acceptance and disappointments between a community leader and his daughter and between parents and children.
The cost is $18 per person with the scrumptious Chinese dinner provided by Eden Wok (with vegetarian options). Tickets may be purchased at the door.
This program is generously supported by the UJA-Federation of NY.
A Shana Tova u Metuka to All!

Starting Friday night, August 2nd, and continuing through the summer, Stanton’s Kabbalat Shabbat minyan will begin at 7:00pm and will end with a kiddush featuring special libations. (Hint: it rhymes with the Yiddish word for a spanking and can pack as much of a wallop but has a much more pleasant after-taste.) For more information, speak to new minyan organizers Steve Nacache and Aaron Epstein.
