The 9th Light – Shalom Park

The annual event of witnessing the 9th light , the shamash, light up in Shalom Park takes place on the last night of Chanukah. This is an art installation that pays tribute to the memory of the Jewish people who lived in Cork. The 9th light only lights up one day every year, on the last night of Chanukah. City Hall is sponsoring a ‘Hot drinks Reception’ in City Hall, after the event.

The cover of Jewtown is inspired by this annual event that remembers the Jewish Community of Cork.
