- Pre-Holiday Workshops – In the years 2004-2006 we organized a very successful pre-Holiday workshop series in Prague as well as in several Jewish communities outside of Prague. We offer interesting tools how to embrace the Jewish tradition in its very essence, in storytelling, songs, recipes, liturgy customs and other components that are closely related to particular festivals. In other words we can provide useful low-threshold tool for the Jewish Year education programme.
