Thousands at the Jewish Children’s Museum Over Chanukah
A view from above, the line going all the way onto Kingston Ave.
Throughout that 8 days of Chanukah, Tizvos Hashem’s Jewish Children’s Museum became once of the most popular family and camp attractions. With something between 2000 and 2500 visitors a day the line to buy tickets to get in was seen extending out the building doors onto the side walk on Eastern Parkway.
Families from neighborhoods around Crown Heights flocked to the museum as well as winter camps from all around the tri-state area. The museum opened up Chanukah exhibits, shows and activities such as decorating doughnuts and baking Latkes.

Great pic webby!!!
How did you get up there, you’re doing a fantastic job, and that pic really gives us a perspective of how many people came.
BTW I was there and the line although it didn’t get shorter for a few hours, (and at times even exteded to the door of the museum shop,) was moving from the back to front in about 30 mins!! Now that’s alot of visitors.
The exhibits, espescialy the new ones for chanuka were really great and thoght out!!
Thank You JCM.

i was there, and the exibits were fantastic, but i think they made a mistake in letting everyone in. people were upset because they couldn’t see, there was pushing and it was very tiring. i think they should do what they did on sukkos- only allow people in (on crowded days) with reservations. i think people would rather not be allowed in than have to pay and not enjoy it. but it’s really a great place.
btw, great website!!
