Purim

Purim in a Bag!

February 24, 2021 by Ross Weisman

We can’t celebrate Purim this year the way we wanted to, but we still want to give you a little present to show we care! Sign up to pick up one of our Purim bags that contain such treats as:

  • Hamantaschen (of course)
  • A mask
  • A little nip of alcohol
  • And more!

Plus, you’ll receive a bonus bag to open for our March happy hour!

Note that you must pickup this bag in Center City Philadelphia. We are unable to accomodate deliveries at this time. Be sure to wear a face mask over your mouth and nose when you pick up your box.

To aid us in accommodating you to fully participate in this event, please email info@tribe12.org or call us at (267) 652-0088 with at least three days notice.

Purim: Party Like a Queen

March 12, 2020 by Davinica Nemtzow

Due to the recent escalation of events related to COVID-19 we have opted to cancel this evening’s Purim: Party Like a Queen per with Governor Wolf’s recommendation. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and hope to dance through the galleries with you all at a later date.If you have any questions or concerns please reach out to davinica@tribe12.org


Purim, or the Feast of Lots, is a joyous holiday that recounts the protection of Jewish peoples from a threatened massacre during the Persian period. Now, Purim is considered by some to be feminist holiday, due to the ancient queens that played major roles within the historic events. Join the Penn Museum as we celebrate this festive occasion with a queer twist! Guests will enjoy special highlight tours of the galleries, crafts, music, and end the night with a bang: a costume contest!
