PJ Library Celebrates 5782

PJ Library welcomed 5782 with a special virtual program in partnership with Maker Monkey Workshop and the Miami Children’s Museum. Participants shared a PJ Rosh Hashanah story and then created a delicious “platter” of holiday foods, while learning how each item symbolizes wishes for the new year. The instructional video and template of the craft is available to download here along with a High Holiday Guide that explores ways for families to celebrate and find meaning in these special days. Since the beginning of the pandemic, PJ has provided a steady stream of engaging and educational activities for children of all ages, accessible through their social media pages. For more information on PJ Library and to begin receiving free Jewish books in the mail every month, register here. PJ Library is a gift from the Greater Miami Jewish Federation made possible by the Harold Grinspoon Foundation and the Blank Family Foundation.
