Join us between 11am and 3pm for a drop in activity in our Communities Gallery, inspired by our temporary exhibition “Maimonides from Scratch”.
‘Maimonides from Scratch’ brings to life the trajectory and texts of Maimonides as a rabbi and doctor and as part of the historical and contemporary Sephardi world. Maimonides from Scratch centres on a series of workshops held at Manchester Jewish Museum and in Marseille with groups of schoolchildren who explored his life through stop-motion animation, storyboarding, and graphic novel design.

Maimonides wrote in Judeo-Arabic, and we will be trying our own hand at calligraphy inspired by his work!
This event and the exhibition can be enjoyed as part of General Admission to the museum. The activity is suitable for ages 4+.
