Join us for a Chanukah-themed workshop to get you in the festive spirit!

Find out more about this eight-day holiday, known as the ‘festival of lights’, and the food that is often enjoyed by Jewish communities as part of the celebrations. Decorate and make chocolate gelt, with a range of glitter, sprinkles and fruits! Take your coins home in your very own origami box, to enjoy with family or friends or give as a beautiful gift. You’ll also have a chance to play the traditional Chanukah game of dreidel and have a go at our candle decorating activity.

Entry to the museum is included in your ticket, so there will be plenty of time to explore the 1874 Spanish and Portuguese synagogue and museum galleries. Come along and discover more about the rich and diverse history of Jewish Manchester. All ages welcome!
