Leeds Jewry celebrated its culture and heritage in truly hands-on style on Sunday with a sculpture and crafts fair at the MAZ community centre, attended by 400 people.
Sculptor of celebrities Frances Segelman took centre stage at the event, organised Jewish education charity Makor as part of the local community's 150th anniversary celebrations.
Ms Segelman fashioned a bust of Leeds philanthropist Dr Marjorie Ziff, 81, which will take three months to cast into bronze.
"It's very important to keep our community together and Makor are doing an amazing job through events like these," Dr Ziff said.
