A virtual event presentation by Rabbi Vanessa Harper About The Event: In Pirkei Avot, we read, “If there is no bread, there is no Torah, and if there is no Torah, there is no bread.” Rabbi Vanessa Harper takes this dictum literally in her book Loaves of Torah: Exploring the Jewish Year through Challah, using challah as a spiritually significant material for interpreting and teaching Jewish texts. Discover fascinating challah history, explore the intersections of challah and Torah, and gain inspiration for your own creative Torah study journey along the way. About The Speaker: Rabbi Vanessa Harper is the author of Loaves of Torah: Exploring the Jewish Year through Challah, published in 2023 by the CCAR Press; the book is based upon her long-time Instagram-based education project @lechlechallah, which uses challah as an artistic medium for interpreting and teaching Torah and the Jewish calendar. She is passionate about facilitating creative, joyful, and meaningful Jewish learning and living for people of all ages.
