Congregation Or Chadash Sisterhood and Temple Emanu-El Women of Reform Judaism will hold their first major collaboration, a fashion show high tea, on Sunday, Sept. 15, from 2-4 p.m. The event will be catered by L’Chaim Catering and fashions provided by Clique and LuLaRoe will be modeled by members from both synagogues. Local artist Lynn Rae Lowe will emcee the event, which will be held at Temple Emanu-El. The cost is $25, with all proceeds benefitting WRJ’s YES (Youth, Education, and Special Projects) Fund.
