"On this joyous Succot, with love and gratitude for our beloved Hampton Synagogue and for Rabbi Marc Schneier, whose remarkable vision, devotion and boundless heart have built and nurtured an extraordinary Jewish community—one that has truly become family. We celebrate the cherished friendships he has inspired and the blessing of sharing our Jewish heritage with our children, Jarrett, Heather and Norell, and our grandchildren, Morgan, Payton, Jordyn, Jakson and Mollie. May our faith, unity and love of Yiddishkeit forever triumph over antisemitism as we proudly carry our traditions l’dor v’dor-from generation to generation."

Dune Deck Shuttle

This year, Dune Deck Shuttle service will operate on both days of Succot (September 26-27) and Shemini Atzeret/Simchat Torah (October 3-4)

See you at Shul! Dune Deck is again very generously providing shuttle service that makes regular loops around Westhampton Beach [see schedule and stops below - watch for the white Hampton Hopper minibus], connecting Dune Road with the village.

This hop-on/hop-off community service will again be available, free of charge, to anyone who wants it. This year, the service is expanded with stops on the "mainland," including the corner of Bayfield Lane and Oneck Road.

This service may enable those who find it difficult to walk long distances in the late summer heat to attend The Hampton Synagogue, as one of the stops in town is at CVS, just across the street from the synagogue.

For more information, contact Dr. Barry Helprin (barryhelprin1@gmail.com)

Manes Art Center

Located at Jack’s House, the Manes Art Center of The Hampton Synagogue in Westhampton Beach engages members of the greater Hamptons community in high-quality works of art and cultural experiences for the educational and enhancement of all.

The Manes Art center is the gift of our distinguished benefactor, Dr. Harvey Manes, a passionate collector of art for over 40 years. Dr. Manes sits on the Board of the Nassau County Museum of Art and has lent numerous works from his collection to notable museums, including the Museum of Contemporary Art (Chicago), Heckscher Museum, NCMA, Jewish Museum-NYC, and others.

The quality and breadth of the Manes Art Center collection features an eclectic collection of modern, contemporary, and old master artists, as well as sculptures. Artists in the collection include Andy Warhol, Basquiat, Koons, Salvador Dali, Roy Lichtenstein, Marc Chagall, Yaacov Agam, Jim Dine, among others.

On permanent view in the Barnet Family Chapel is the work of world-renowned artist, Dale Chihuly, who designed and created the Chapel’s Fiore windows that allow natural light to interact with the space in dynamic harmony, Eternal Light, and the only Menorah of Chihuly’s illustrious career.

Aranowitz Library

We are proud to offer the only Jewish study library & Beit Midrash in the Hamptons as a community resource, containing both volumes of torah scholarship and general Jewish knowledge & culture. We invite you to visit The Aranowitz Library in the Kaylie Center, open during normal business hours and on Shabbat.

With the High Holy Days approaching, dedicating a plaque on the beautiful Yahrzeit Memorial Wall in the Berman Sanctuary is a beautiful way to pay tribute to the memory of a departed loved one.
