LADIES WHO GET THEIR HANDS DIRTY

$54 per person – includes charcuterie
board making supplies and lunch
Location TBA


We’re digging into the creative world of hand-building ceramics, a simple, hands-on technique using clay. This workshop
will guide you from the ground up as you create your very own ceramic charcuterie board. You’ll hand-build your piece, which
will then be fired in a kiln, bringing your creation to life. No prior ceramic experience is necessary, just come ready to get a little
messy and have fun!

 

RSVP by Monday, August 10 here or with Sherry Majewski at 419-724-0351 or sherry@jewishtoledo.org.

JEWISH FEDERATION & FOUNDATION OF GREATER TOLEDO ANNUAL MEETING

Featuring Sarah Hurwitz, author

 

Time and location TBA

 

For nearly 15 years, Sarah Hurwitz built a career finding just the right words. She served as a White House speechwriter from 2009 to 2017, first as a senior speechwriter for President Barack Obama and then as head speechwriter for First Lady Michelle Obama. Sarah worked with Mrs. Obama to craft widely acclaimed addresses and traveled with her across America and to five continents.

 

Prior to working in the White House, Sarah was in the thick of political campaigns – serving as the chief speechwriter for Hillary Clinton on her 2008 presidential campaign and deputy chief speechwriter for Senator John Kerry in 2004 and General Wesley Clark in 2003.

 

As a Jew: Reclaiming Our Story from Those Who Blame, Shame, and Try to Erase Us is a New York Times bestseller and winner of a National Jewish Book Award and the Natan Notable Book Award. It is an urgent exploration of how antisemitism has shaped Jewish identity and how Jews can reclaim their tradition.

 

RSVP here or with Sherry Majewski at 419-724-0351 or sherry@jewishtoledo.org.
