Posted: Jul, 28th 2015 Contributor: Bilen Shifferaw,

Your chance to participate in a traditional coffee making ceremony, enjoy an authentic vegan Ethiopian meal and learn about the Ethiopian Jewish community in Gondar. 

How have their lives changed since the massive immigration to Israel of the 1990s? What challenges do they face today? 

This is a family friendly event, with Ethiopian craft activities for children. We're hoping for nice weather so that we can enjoy the event outdoors.

Booking is essential* £10 standard price, £7.50 JVS member/student, £5 standard child, £3.50 JVS child member - click here to become a JVS member: http://www.jvs.org.uk/member-signup

All the proceeds from this event will go to support the work of Meketa.
