The Magnes invites high school students who are interested in art, history, culture, and more to connect with each other and UC Berkeley personnel on campus at our upcoming teen event.
Join the Magnes for Texts You Can Taste: Sephardic Culinary Heritage with culinary historian and cookbook author Dr. Hélène Jawhara Piñer as she reflects on ways food can tell stories about the Jewish Diaspora. A lecture, cooking demo, tasting, and book signing, Dr. Jawhara Piñer will share her research work collecting recipes from historical sources and demonstrate the preparation of traditional Sephardic foods.
Join the Magnes and JIMENA, Jews Indigenous to the Middle East and North Africa for "Henna Party: Celebrate Middle Eastern Jewish Wedding Traditions" and experience the special garments, tastes, songs, and spirit of a traditional Sephardic and Mizrahi Henna Ceremony!
Stop by the Magnes on the last Sunday of the month for PJ Library's Story Hour, presented in partnership with PJ Library Bay Area. Each month features a different theme and book suited for children of all backgrounds as they learn about themselves and the world around them.
