The Chabad Jewish Center of South Brunswick will host “The Shofar Factory,” a hands-on workshop about the significance and history of the shofar, 11 a.m. Sept. 25. A shofar is a semi-musical horn used by Jews on their New Year — Rosh Hashanah — and onYom Kippur. Participants will see how a ram’s horn is cured, measured, sawed, drilled and polished. When the shofar is complete, participants will then learn how to blow it and sound the traditional notes. For more information, call 732-398- 9492.
