Seder Squad a glass etching workshop to create your own seder or matzah plate for Passover Sunday March 31, 2019 6 pm - 8:30 pm Boston, MA Host: Riverway Project @ Temple Israel Why do we include certain items on the seder plate? What if you don't have a seder plate or if there isn't room on yours for everything you'd want to include? Now is your chance to design your own glass seder (or matzah) plate as you connect with other young adults (age 21-45) during this creative workshop. Participants will learn glass etching techniques to create a beautiful plate that can be used in your Passover celebration. We'll also engage in some learning about the seder plate to help inspire your design. There will be a light dinner included as well.
