Shofar Factory
The Union County Torah Center will present “The Shofar Factory” on Sunday Sept. 28, 11:00-12:00 PM at the Torah Center Hebrew School at Westfield High School, 550 Dorian Rd. in Westfield.
Everyone who comes will learn and experience the various steps involved in transforming a ram’s horn into a Shofar, the horn traditionally blown in synagogues throughout the world on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.
