Ritual Lab: The Megillah & Hebrew Text

In celebration of Purim, learn about the process for writing sacred text, including the whole Megillah! Participants will then learn Hebrew calligraphy and be able to write a word that is important to them. The arts workshop will be led by Soferet Leana Tapnack.

RSVP to reserve your materials.

Ritual Lab Workshops are where the personal meets the communal. During each workshop, we’ll examine the ideas expressed through a Jewish ritual and then create the object connected to that ritual. Though each ritual item is grounded in Jewish tradition, the items you create will be deeply personal, inspired by your individual aesthetic and unique relationship to the particular ritual or holiday.

At the end of each workshop, you’ll walk away with new art skills, a connection to the Columbia Jewish community.

Cost should not be a barrier to participate. If you are unable to pay and would like to attend any of the experiences offered, please email Melissa.
