- **Event Name**: “That’s How You Make a Torah” - A Hands-on Workshop with Torah Scribe Rabbi Linda Motzkin
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 15 Mar, 2026 at 02:00 pm
- **Event Description**: At this once-in-a-lifetime workshop, Romemu members will participate in the creation of a Torah scroll with Rabbi Linda Motzkin, the first woman known to make a Torah scroll from scratch. Rabbi Linda Motzkin is a Torah scribe and one of the stars of the short documentary, “That’s How You Make a Torah,” directed by Romemu’s Director of Programming Lauren Greenhall. Creating this film is what led Lauren to pursue a job in the Jewish professional world and is ultimately why she’s at Romemu.

Participants will get a sneak preview of the film followed by the opportunity to see and touch the raw materials -- animal skin, sinew, quills, materials used in making ink, and more-- that go into making a Torah scroll, and then participate in the sacred process of checking individual parchment panels before they can be assembled. Once completed, this Torah will be donated to a community in need of one. 

All ages/families are welcome. Knowledge of Hebrew is not necessary to participate.
