Chanukah Maker Faire
Bringing together nature-based exploration with the Jewish Festival of Light for kids in grades K-5
Join Wilderness Torah for our first-ever Chanukah Maker Faire!
Kids and mentors spend the day outdoors, come rain or shine, in the Oakland redwoods crafting, cooking, storytelling and re-imagining gifting—an alternative to mainstream materialism during Chanukah.
Some highlights include:
- Making olive oil lamps and dipping beeswax candles
- Cooking applesauce over an open fire for our Chanukah latkes
- Learning how to respectfully and sustainably harvest wild plants for homemade gifts
- Active Maccabia games where kids explore the winter woods and deepen their connections with nature
- Chanukah storytelling and mythology
