Celebrate our community. Sustain our future. Join us at the historic Carolina Theatre on November 8, 2025.
Every other year, we throw a party with a purpose.
Join us for cocktails, conversation, and a one-of-a-kind performance by Broadway’s Morgan James as we honor this year’s incredible honorees and bid on unforgettable auction items.
This year, we’re proud to recognize Marcy and Fred Dumas with the Blumenthal Lifetime Achievement Award. Marcy and Fred have given their time, wisdom, and love to Temple Beth El for decades. Their leadership shows up in our sanctuary, our programs, and the lives they’ve touched. We’re better because of them.
Soul singer. Broadway star. Total powerhouse. Morgan James brings her signature style and voice to the stage — and we can’t wait for you to hear her!
Our live auction is one of the most exciting moments of the night!
Items will include: a private dinner with Rabbi Asher Knight and Rabbi Ana Bonnheim, a luxury Carolina Beach getaway, and so much more!
