Jews in the D

Fun was had by all at the annual 
Sherrill Berman Shofar Factory Festival 
where participants carved their own 
shofars, made blankets, rode camels 
and climbed a 30-foot “Mount Sinai.” 
People enjoyed a petting farm and also 
got to watch and learn as a beekeeper 
used live bees to produce fresh honey. 
The event was sponsored by the Sherrill 
Berman Art Education Fund, Tugman 
Bais Chabad of West Bloomfield, Janice 
Charach Art Gallery, JFamily, JCC Day 
Camps and the JCC. 

Children learn about the shofar before being given their own shofars to 
complete and take home.

Linda Baruch of West Bloomfield and 
her grandson Lior Baruch of Ann Arbor 
learn from a scribe how to write with 
ink, quill and parchment.

Rabbi Shneur Silberberg displays a 
Yemenite shofar as part of the
shofar-making demo.

Chana Drissman, Tzipporah Drissman, Mila Salita 
and Raya Salita, all of West Bloomfield, prepare to 
make their own “honey cake in a jar.”

 
Jacob Gross of West 
Bloomfield holds a blanket 
he helped pack to be given 
to local seniors.
