Abstract:
In January 2007, as in 2005 and 2006, Limmud NY created an exciting celebration of Jewish life and learning. Participants of all ages and diverse backgrounds spent four days immersed in Jewish experiences—some new and some familiar. This report paints a picture of Limmud NY and its participants and details the challenges of growth, success, and commitment. Despite the issues the event’s planners confront, the picture reveals a vibrant and vital Jewish experience for New Yorkers—an experience that continues to enrich and expand the Jewish lives of participants.
