Lunch and Learn: “Art and Science of Sacred Writing” led by Julie Seltzer
Saturday, October 22, 2016 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm
For centuries, only men had been trained in the art of sacred writing. Thanks to the women who paved the way in this field and others, Julie has had the opportunity to learn the ancient and sacred craft of sofrut.
Julie Seltzer is a soferet (scribe), a Hebrew calligrapher who writes sacred texts on parchment. She is one of a few women who work as soferets, and describes scribing as an art that fuses so much of who she is and what she loves: Torah, Hebrew, art, ritual, meditation.
Join us on Saturday, October 22nd, 2016 for a BYO-Brown-Bag Lunch & Learn with Soferet Julie Seltzer. Drinks provided.
