Jewish Art Calendar 5786 (2025/26)

Dear Friend, We are excited to announce Chabad of the Upper East Side's popular calendar for 5786, Sept '25 - Sept '26, is in the works. We distribute over 7,000 editions of the calendar throughout NYC. Many wait and rely on us for their Jewish informational calendar. You can be part of this service to the community. For many it is their guide to the Jewish New Year, Holidays and Traditions and for some, it is their only Jewish connection. In these challenging times, it is crucial to stand together and create even stronger Jewish connections, especially as too many feel alone. The calendar plays a big role in strengthening the community and connecting them to each other. Therefore, we would appreciate your partnership to ensure the calendar project comes to fruition. Please consider being a sponsor or participating through a business ad or New Year Greetings.
