Jewish Cultural Renaissance Series

The Jewish Community Relations Council of the Jewish Federation of Greater New Haven is proud to present the Jewish Cultural Renaissance Series, an inspiring new initiative in partnership with the JCC of Greater New Haven and the Jewish Foundation of Greater New Haven.

 

This season of engaging programs brings together the richness of Jewish values, traditions, and culture through live performances, films, music, and art.


Each event explores a unique theme, grounded in timeless Jewish values, with many featuring talkbacks to foster meaningful conversations. From the courage of activists to the laughter of comedy, and the hope found in shared stories, this series offers something for everyone.

This series reflects the Federation’s commitment to acting as a unifying force, enhancing Jewish life in Greater New Haven and leading our local Jewish Renaissance in partnership with local synagogues, cultural institutions, and community partners.


We invite you to join us in this journey of discovery. Explore the season’s offerings, reserve your tickets, and bring family and friends to these unforgettable experiences.


Let’s celebrate the vibrancy of Jewish culture—together. Our goal is to continuously increase the quality and relevance of the arts and cultural offerings in ways that enrich the lives of our community.
