In person only Members only

Have you ever imagined how much work and effort you might put into building a temple like Shaaray Tefila?! In honor of our 180th year, take a deep dive with artist and author Andrea Strongwater into the history of building Eastern European Synagogues and consider how you (kids and adults alike) might build your own temple, given the freedom of your imagination, and the limitations of the page. Intended for audiences of 4 and up. Open to all members.  Please Note: This is NOT a drop-off program. All children must be accompanied by an adult. _To limit food waste, advance registration is requested. _ **More about the Author and Illustrator: ** Andrea Strongwater is a New York-based artist and author renowned for her vibrant paintings and children's books that celebrate Jewish history, holidays, and architectural heritage.
