TISH
Tish
A tish, also spelled tisch, is a gathering of Hasidim around their Rebbe. It may consist of speeches on Torah subjects, singing of melodies known as niggunim and zemirot, with refreshments being served. Hasidim see it as a moment of great holiness. They are public events that are open to non-Hasidim as well.The above text is a snippet from Wikipedia: Tish (Hasidic celebration)
