** What is Lag B'Omer? Lag B'Omer is a minor Jewish holiday that occurs on the 33rd day ("Lag" corresponds in Hebrew to the number 33) of the Omer, the 49-day period between Passover and Shavuot. The period of the Omer is considered a time of semi-mourning because, according to legend, a plague killed thousands of Rabbi Akiva's students during that time. However, the legend continues, on the 33rd day of the Omer period, the plague ceased, and so today we celebrate Lag B'Omer with bonfires, picnics, and celebrations!
Boarding begins at 6:30pm at MOHAI off of Lake Union.
