Join us for a cosy autumnal baking and bookmark-making workshop, inspired by Sukkot!
In this session, we will be exploring stories from our collection connected to the Jewish holiday, Sukkot, which took place at the beginning of this month. During Sukkot, many Jewish families eat dishes that include stuffed foods, often with vegetables and pastry, to symbolise the bounty of the harvest. Inspired by Jewish recipes found within our archive, we will create baked apples filled with Autumnal ingredients: oats, cinnamon, honey and raisins!
As our apples bake, you’ll also get to try your hand at weaving! Make a small bookmark, ready to nestle down with your favourite read this coming winter.
This workshop is open to anyone of any age: adults, families and children. You will get to take home everything you make!
