Hamantashen, the traditional Purim pastry, has a sweet filling hidden within a plain pastry shell, just like the story of Purim where seemingly mundane occurrences were shown later to be the beginning of great miracles. There is no such thing as defeat. If we fall down, it is in only to stand taller.
Gallery hours are Monday – Thursday from 1-6 PM (excluding religious holidays). “Planet Purim Art and More” will run from March 6-26th, 2009. Please stop by to browse in our BIG small crafts area, and please inquire about our workshops.
