Workshops and weekends your community will love.

Are you looking for a way to bring your community together, and inspire people of all ages? Invite me to join you for a one-time event, or for the whole weekend! I offer people an unforgettable experience: the opportunity to get up close and personal with the ancient Jewish centerpiece, the Torah scroll. Together, we can build a unique program that fits your congregation’s needs. Single workshops are offered in person or on Zoom, and weekend programming includes a dvar torah, classes and workshops, lunch & learn, hands-on religious school activities, and on-site Torah scroll maintenance or assessment.

This in-depth, hands-on experience is a wonderful way to engage congregants through an intimate encounter with your torah scrolls. The weekend is built together according to each congregation’s community and needs, and can include on-site repair as well as adult and family education.
