Micah Showcases Homegrown Craft Artists

Temple Micah abounds with craft artists. For the first time, the Temple will showcase the work of at least a dozenhanukah candles homegrown jewelers, potters, glass and fabric artists at the Annual Hanukkah Gift—and now—Craft Fair on Sunday, Dec. 6, from 9:30 am to 2 pm downstairs in the Atrium. Most of the items on display are designed to make attractive Hanukkah or other seasonal gifts. Meanwhile, the traditional Hanukkah fair upstairs in the Galleria will feature Hanukkah necessities (candles, gelt, dreidels, menorahs), Israeli made crafts, children’s books and toys, and other Judaica.

G-DCAST

g-dcastA new whimsical but totally accessible telling of the current Torah portion (parsha).  "A cartoon about the story Jews are reading in the Torah right now. A different writer tells the parsha in 4 minutes: some are stories, others are country songs or hip hop!".  Check it out on our Shabbat Morning Services Page.
