Tamid is the downtown partner of The Jewish Journey Project of the JCC In Manhattan and other NYC synagogues. Starting in the Fall  2014, JJP will offer classes on Thursday afternoons and Sunday mornings at Tamid in Tribeca. We invite JJP students from all over Manhattan to join us downtown.

JJP provides student and families with opportunities to engage in creative Jewish education options like cooking, art, music, sports, choir, krav maga, mitzvah projects, etc., making use of the vast Jewish resources of our great city of New York. Read the full course schedule.

The Fall 2014 semester of JJP@Tamid will offer:

1st-2nd Graders take Tamid Core classes;
3rd-5th graders have a choice to enroll in Tamid Core Hebrew School and/or JJP; one or the other – or both!
6th-7th graders must enroll in Tamid Core and can also add JJP classes throughout the year. Tamid students involved in JJP will attend the Tamid “meet-up” once per month at our First Friday Community Shabbat.

Tamid members enroll in the Tamid Hebrew School and Christina Brossard, our Director of Education and JJP advisor, will arrange for your classes in JJP (as many as you like!).  Participating in JJP is included in your Tamid Hebrew School registration. Additional fees ($495) will apply to those students who enroll in both the Tamid Core and JJP simultaneously.

Tamid is honored to bring the resources of the JCC to Lower Manhattan as we work together to build a strong Jewish community for our families.
