Makom Making: Bringing Makom’s Pedagogy to Your Community

Over the last eleven years, Makom Community has established a Lab School in Philadelphia. We have witnessed how our unique pedagogy, Jewish Placemaking, brings children and families into conversation with ancient Jewish text, their physical space, and strategies for relating to ourselves and each other with intention. We know firsthand how challenging part-time Jewish education can be and the importance of engaging families as they navigate the struggles and joys of raising Jewish kids. We want to share our pedagogy with our partners who are engaging families. We aim to nurture and support the social, emotional and spiritual wellbeing of our communities. More so, we have a pedagogy that empowers and enhances local communities to do this holy work well and deeply across North America.

We want to connect with you to support the vision and needs of your community, as well as your professional goals! Contact Terri Soifer, Director of Strategy, to arrange a 20 minute meeting to connect.
