Kibbutz Galuyot - Ingathering of ExilesDress up in different national costumes and serve special foods, for instance: The BookshelfThis rather banal-sounding activity can be revitalized through periodic renewal and enrichment of the book shelf. You can vary the activity: not the entire world of books, but a "shelf" of one type of books, for instance, children's books and tales, or detective or feuilleton literature. You may tighten the focus by centering the entire party around one book only, for instance: a book by Shalom Aleichem. FashionWomen's, men's and children's fashion shows. Summer, winter, autumn and spring fashion. Fashions in hats, clothing and shoes, swimwear, travel and excursion fashions; contemporary fashion, yesterday's fashion, early fashions (at the time of the forefathers, the sixteenth-seventeenth century, etc.) and tomorrow's fashion. All accompanied, of course, by humoristic explanations, live examples and an additional entertainment show, as is customary in fashion shows. CircusClowns, acrobats, athletes, dancers, orchestras and so forth, in conventional and characteristic circus performances. An evening of physical and intellectual agility.
