Governor, Boston Mayor Celebrate Hanukkah in Copley Square [Photo, Video]
Come to Copley and we'll light the menorah...
On the fourth night of Hanukkah, Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker and Boston Mayor Marty Walsh joined City Councilor Josh Jakim to light a jumbo-sized menorah in Boston's Copley Square Tuesday.
The Copley lighting was Mayor Walsh's second of the night, following another community lighting on the Common earlier in the day Tuesday.
We've collected some photos and reactions from the lighting below, including video from Councilor Zakim:
