Check-in: 10:30 am

Event Start Time: 11:00 am

In celebration of Growing Up Jewish – Art & Storytelling, join Holocaust Museum Houston’s NEXTGen for a Challah Bake and an exclusive tour of the new exhibition.

Known for its signature braided shape, challah is a rich, slightly sweet bread that is a staple of Jewish traditions, particularly for the Sabbath, holidays, and religious rituals. Taking place directly before Rosh Hashanah, guests will make round challahs representing the cycle of the year past and the cycle of the year ahead of us. 

Through contemporary paintings, Growing Up Jewish – Art & Storytelling explores the key people, experiences, and community that shaped artist Jacquelline Kott-Wolle. Together with her written reflections on being Jewish, Kott-Wolle takes the viewer on a journey into her grandmother’s kitchen at Passover, her Zeidi’s textile store, her summer, camp and more.

Breakfast tacos and coffee will be served.

Tickets are $20 for NEXTGen Members and $25 for general admission. Ticket price includes Museum admission, parking, and baking supplies.

NEXTGen is an affinity group for young professionals ages 21-45 who share a common passion for Holocaust Museum Houston and its mission.
