The 34th Annual Atlanta Purim Parade & Festival was held on Feb. 22. The parade down Lavista Road featured floats from several area shuls, both Atlanta Jewish Academy and Torah Day School of Atlanta, and additional organizations such as JScreen and the Sabra Riders. The parade concluded at the Beth Jacob parking lot, where everyone then gathered for a three-hour carnival, featuring rides, a petting zoo, arts and crafts, vendors, food and much more!
