It’s a tradition at the New York Jewish Week to honor innovators and changemakers who are representing what’s new, what’s different and what’s pioneering in the ways New York’s Jews are giving back to the Jewish community, the city and the wider world.
We’re looking to honor 36 individuals for their creative approaches to timely and current issues in the worlds of arts, religion, culture, politics, philanthropy — anything! They might be students or recent graduates who are making their first big splash in the Jewish community, or they may be people in the middle of distinguished careers who came up with a fresh approach to a timeless challenge.
Now is the chance to nominate someone (or yourself!) for the New York Jewish Week’s 36 to Watch. Let us know about people whose work may have gone unheralded, whose contributions are especially relevant to the time and moment, or who simply nailed it with a new job, project or position.
Nominees must currently live or work in the New York metropolitan area, or have some tangible connection to New York. Nominations must be received no later than May 27, 2025. You can fill out the nomination form here.
