Love is in the air, Reader!

Today is Tu B’Av — often known as Jewish Valentine’s Day. Back in Talmudic times, this was considered one of the two happiest days of the Jewish calendar (believe it or not, the other is Yom Kippur), and it’s seen a sweet resurgence in Jewish communities today. 

Traditionally, the day is celebrated with wine, white dresses and a dance party under the full moon. But if you’re looking for another way to observe, show some love for the Jewish journalism bringing you the best of Jewish culture, news, and more by making a gift to the Forward today. 

Support from our donors lets us stay independent, powers the journalistic excellence you trust, and keeps us ahead of the curve of the ever-changing world of digital journalism. There’s never been a sweeter day to share the love: celebrate your love for independent Jewish media with a Tu B’Av gift.

With love and gratitude,

Mira Fox
