Biennial Weekend of Liberal Judaism - Silk Sale

Cheltenham

Sunday 7th May 2006

The Biennial Weekend of Liberal Judaism held at Cheltenham included a "Market Place" for the display and sale of Judaica items. Mavis Hyman's handpainted silk challa covers, matza and afikomen sets, tallitoth for women and kippoth for men and women were on sale. Books by Mavis Hyman on Indian-Jewish Cooking and Jews of the Raj were included together with Mimento greetings cards designed by Miriam Hyman. £580 was raised for the Fund within an hour and a half of brisk sales! All proceeds went towards the Miriam Hyman Memorial Fund within the charity ORBIS UK.

We are grateful to Rosita Rosenberg for organising this stall.
