The Crafty Corner at Manchester Jewish Museum is a space where guests get to explore, experiment, and express their creative side. In every workshop, explore a story from the museum’s collection about a trade or craft and create an artistic response to its themes, craft process or medium.
Join them in July to make your very own candle. Using a soy wax base, experiment with different essential oils to customise the scent of your candle, as well as creating a beautiful personalised label. Explore the symbolism of candles in Judaism, as well as some examples of candles from the museum’s collection to inspire your creations.
