Join us for the Third Annual Great Big Maine Challah Bake at the JCA in Portland.

Join us and learn about the Jewish tradition and ritual of Challah baking. Share stories, connect with friends, participate in hands-on challah dough preparation and braiding, and learn with a special presentation from Kenden Alfond of Jewish Food Hero and Rabbanit Debbie Zimmerman. Once again, we will be joined by bakers Graeme and Caitlin Miller of Ben Reuben's Knishery fame. Graeme and Caitlin will lead us through baking the perfect loaf of challah.
