There is no cost to attend, but registration is required.
All participants will enjoy an overview of the historical, zoological and religious elements of the Shofar. The highlight of the program is the actual hands-on demonstration of how a Shofar is created, beginning with an unfinished horn and ending with a genuine Shofar. The demonstration is interactive, using many volunteers from the audience to saw, drill, sand and polish the horn, thereby turning it into a Shofar. Finally, the participants are then taught how to sound the Shofar as well as the proper sequence of notes sounded on Rosh Hashanah.
Some participants will have the opportunity to make their own shofar. Priority for this opportunity will go to families with children between the ages of 4 and 18. All others are welcome to attend as spectators, and there is a place below to indicate interest in making a shofar should there be any extra materials.
