Shofar Factory
Classroom Setup

Shofar Factory Presentation Segment

• Presentation/Orientation lasts 50-60 minutes.
• Optimally, 60-70 children per presentation is advised.
• Please have a nearby parking space available for our vehicle (with a pass if needed) so that everything can be unloaded quickly and crew can start performance without delay.
• The Presentation/Display area, should be indoors
• If program must be held outdoors, overhead cover, (tent or canopy,) is a must.
• Since ‘helpers’ will be called up to bring the show-and-tell items up close, a stage is not advised.
• Program area should be at least 20' x 30', with good lighting, on a bare floor, (no carpet is better).
• Chairs are not necessary. Younger children can sit on the floor in a semicircle around the display area – set up chairs on the periphery for adults.
• Tables: One 6 foot or 8 foot rectangular table is needed for presentation/display area.
• If the students will work on individual DIY shofars later, an additional 4-8 long tables are also needed..
• Access to water.
• If there will be more than one presentation please send us a schedule two weeks before the program.

DIY Shofar Making segment (OPTIONAL)

• Individual DIY shofar making segment takes place AFTER the Presentation and can accommodate about 30 students at a time at a rate of about 30 shofars per half hour.
• Participants for the DIY Shofar segment need to be at least 10 years old.
• Teachers/Parents should be prepared to assist children who are finding this activity a challenge.
• Most of the work in the hands-on DIY Shofar making session is done while standing, so no chairs are needed.
• Additional 4-8 long tables are necessary for your students to work on their own shofars, (depending on the number of shofar makers).
• Two separate working electrical 120V outlets (rated for 20 amps) from separate circuits are necessary. A staff member should be aware of where the fuse box is.
