Weaving Workshop

Duration:  60 minutes
Cost: 1350 NIS

A live demonstration and explanation of weaving on hand looms, in our beautiful studio, located in the heart of the old city of Tzfat. After learning the ins and outs of this ancient craft, you will participate together in weaving a fabric embroidered with the name of the group, family or congregation. Making memories and art!

*We recommend pairing this workshop with our youth workshop, if your group has more than 10 people.

The Bar/ Bat Mitzvah Experience  – The Tzitzit Connection.                                                                        

Duration: 45 minutes
Cost: 550 NIS

We invite the celebrating family to come to our studio, overlooking the Galilean hills, where you will perform the mitzvah of tying the tzitzit (tassels) to the tallit.

We will explain the spiritual importance of the tzitzit and the Jewish law behind it, while each family member will be asked to tie a knot on the tallit – and along with the knot, to give a blessing or share something meaningful for the bar/bat mitzvah child. At the end of the ceremony, the tallit will be presented to the guest of honor. This experience is full of fascinating insights to the hows and whys of the tying of tzitzit.
