Join us for some challah baking and meet the museum team!

We are delighted to be restarting our Creative Activists project this Autumn. We’re looking for creative people aged 18-25, who are interested in arts, crafts and activism to join the group and help us programme a museum open day for Holocaust Memorial Day 2024. It’s a great opportunity to meet new people, work with professional artists and develop creative skills.

Following on from our introductory meeting, we are inviting project participants to a challah baking workshop. Join us as we knead, plait and bake our delicious challah, while chatting, getting to know each other and sharing our initial ideas about next year’s event. Get your belly full, your mind inspired and meet the museum team who will be supporting throughout the project.

No cooking or artistic experience necessary. Just bring yourself and an open mind!

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

The project is aimed at anyone aged 18 to 25, who is interested in arts, activism and creating powerful acts of sharing and connection with local communities.

This is the second meeting of the project. Don’t worry if you missed the first one, we are still in very early stages and are doors are always open to new participants. Drinks and snacks will be provided. We use kosher approved suppliers, but please email madeleine@manchesterjewishmuseum.com if you have any dietary requirements or require supervised kosher food.
