In this class we will learn not only the names and shapes of all 22 Hebrew letters but you will get to practice writing them with provided calligraphic supplies. We will review some of the scribal Halacha (law) around writing the letters. We will also scratch the surface of the deep Jewish mystic tradition surrounding the inner meanings of each letter. Come get your fingers inky and (re)familiarize yourself with the aleph bet that gave us the first Abrahamic text. Instructors: Zina Jenny and Greg MacNaughton
