Don’t just devour it, learn how to create it.

The Tucson Jewish Community Center is hosting Syrian Refugee Chef Shahd’s cooking series at noon – 3 p.m. on Sundays from September 17 – October 8.

During each class, chef Shahd will tell her story of leaving Syria and making her journey to Tucson, while teaching the traditional cooking techniques passed down from her mother and grandmother.

Tickets are $220 if you’d like to participate in the full four week series.

If only one of these classes strikes your fancy, you can purchase single day tickets for $70.

Members get discounted prices at $200 for the full series, and $65 for single day tickets.
