Tonight, April 22, marks the first night of the major Jewish holiday, Passover.
Many Jewish families will participate in a ritual service and ceremonial meal called Seder tonight.
Mara Langer with Jewish Nevada says that tonight gives Jewish people the opportunity to spend time with each other and remember the importance behind Passover being celebrated.
"There's a Hebrew word, it's called L'dor V'dor. It means from generation to generation, and so by telling this story over and over again it never ends. We continuously share what it meant to be a Jew in Egypt and having an exodus to the promise land of Israel." said Mara Langer.
During tonight's Seder meal, families will drink wine, have various foods, say different blessings, and will tell the Passover story.
Passover will end on April 30, so until then, Jewish families will continue to celebrate by spending time together and eating traditional home cooked meals.
