Welcome to The New Shul

In the Spotlight — 6.24.09

The New Shul: Celebrating 10 Years

This film tribute, The New Shul: Celebrating 10 Years, created by members Maia Wechsler and Adam Zucker with historical images by Max Frankston, was shown at our 10th Anniversary Gala.

SUMMER SHUL IS HERE

Please join us for any (or all) of the events below. Notice we didn't over-program as we want this to be YOUR Summer Shul, so email your ideas and we will plan a few impromptu happenings.

High Line Shabbat

Friday, 7.10, 7pm

Join us for the recently opened High Line and welcome in Friday night with songs, discussion, great food, and an even better view! Exact location TBA.

Networking Breakfast

Monday, 7.13, 7:45am

This session, led by New Shul member Sissy Block, Manager of Strategic Communications at ThomasNet and Limmud NY 2010 Jewish Festival Co-chair, is an interactive brainstorming exercise that will help you tap into what you really want to do for a living (or in your free time if your job pays the bills but leaves you wanting more). This takes place at our office: 505 8th Avenue, Suite 1212 (off of 35th Street).

Chelsea Art Gallery and Loft Party

Thursday, 7.16, 6pm

Join us for an evening with Asher Remy-Toledo, Art Curator, and member of The New Shul as we view one of his latest projects "No Longer Empty" opening at the Chelsea Hotel. The project revitalizes empty commercial spaces in Manhattan through art installations. We will meet the artists and the chief curators Manon Slome and Asher at 6pm at an adjacent space to the Chelsea Hotel entrance (222 west 23rd Street). We will then go to Asher's loft in the neighborhood for cocktails and to see his art collection which focuses on art installation, media technology and emerging artist. Open to everyone!

Hamptons Shabbat

Friday, 8.21, 7pm (rain date, Friday, 8.28)

Road trip! Join us on the fabulous Hampton Beach for sunset and Kabbalat Shabbat. Then come to a member's home for dinner, and great discussion with members and our New Shul team. Exact location TBA.

Sunset and Delicatessen Time

Wednesday, 8.26, 7pm
Join us in Battery Park for a fabulous sunset (and a view of the Statue of Liberty!) and then fill your tummies with some good old deli at the new Izzy and Nat's New York Style Delicatessen. Mmm...knishes and kasha varnishkes. To reserve a spot for any of the above or for more information, please call 212-284-6773.
