Hi there!
I took a chance that you are familiar with the Yiddish term 'Hannukah Gelt' (i.e. Hannukah money, the kind that makes the kids happy). The M.ART Festival is a celebration of theater, dance and musical shows performed by prominent Russian contemporary artists.
In light of the holiday season, the festival's management has decided to give a special Hanukkah price reduction for the festival tickets, a 50% discount for all the various festival performances, that can be obtained at all festival sales sites. The festival itself will take place after the holidays.
WHEN: 20 Feb 2020 - 6 Mar 2020 throughout Tel-Aviv
