The Great Big Challah Bake - The Louisville Shabbat Project
Event Information
Description
We are so excited to be to be #KeepingItTogether with you November 11-12, 2016!
On Wednesday and Thursday nights November 9th and 10th, just before international The Shabbat Project weekend, Jewish communities around the world will join together to make challahs for Shabbat. Whether starting from scratch or just kneading together, it's about the shared experience. Great Big Challah Bakes have seen tens of thousands of inspired Jews, covered in flour, with their spirits soaring.
Every Challah Bake participant will receive their own bowl, ingredients, apron and other goodies.
You'll learn how to whip up a batch of dough and braid it into a beautiful challah, which you'll then take home to bake for Shabbat. We'll celebrate with song and dance, linking our community with other Jews all over the world who'll be doing the exact same thing in this one 24-hour period. How amazing is that!
The Louisville Shabbat Project-Louisville is presented by The J and the Jewish Federation of Louisville with generous support from the Jewish Heritage Fund for Excellence.
