Would you like to become a Museum Foodie?

Our Foodie Group meet monthly to discuss, cook and eat food inspired by stories from our collection, artists and events we programme, as well as our own members heritage’s and backgrounds. Our workshops are informal, chatty and a chance to meet new people, as well as learn about new recipes and cooking traditions.

This month, our Foodie Group is doing something a little different! With Chanukah just around the corner, we’ll be working together to create a new recipe for our special dining event, The Table.

Inspired by Chanukah stories from our museum’s archive, we’ll explore seasonal winter flavours and develop a dish that will feature on the menu for our guests at the event in December.

Come along, get creative and help us bring a new dish to life!

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

This activity is designed for anyone aged 18 or over.

We are always looking for our group members to get involved or co-host our monthly sessions. If you’d be interested in sharing a family recipe, something you’ve grown up eating or cooking, or a dish/recipe that is close to your heart, that would be suitable to explore in this type of group setting, please email Joe at joe@manchesterjewishmuseum.com
