Sukkot

Mixing Up Sukkot: Cooking and Cocktails for 20s and 30s
Thursday, October 1, 6:30 p.m.

All people in their 20s and 30s are invited to Mixing Up Sukkot, our first Young Adults program of the year. Special guest Rabbi Elle Muhlbaum will teach us how to make Sukkot sweet, savory, and all around delicious. Whether you’re an all-star chef (like Rabbi Muhlbaum) or a cooking novice (like Rabbi Bearman), you’ll have fun, meet people and learn something new.

How to participate: Register online here. Ingredient lists will be sent out a week before we get together.

Start by visiting Shaare Emeth to pick up a free package of card-making supplies, or just gather any crafting materials that you already have at home.
