Bubbie's Kitchen

Bubbie’s Kitchen is an innovative cooking program where universal Jewish values are shared, holidays are experienced, foods are tasted, and we learn how mitzvot (good deeds and commandments) make our world a better place. Bubbie’s Kitchen is a welcoming place, and there’s room for all at Bubbie’s table!

The program replicates a Jewish grandmother’s kitchen, where language, recipes, music, stories, and activities can be enjoyed with the whole family and passed on to the next generation.
