To view all events:

Each year, we gather the best and brightest Emerging Artists in their 20’s & 30’s into a cohort that works together over the course of 9 months to learn, grow and produce a brand new Salon theatre show.

Every now and then we bring the best and brightest authors, artists, game-changers and creatives straight to you! A little breakfast with a side dish of fascinating interviews and audience Q&A’s.

Through our unique style called Salon Theatre and one-person shows, we provide an outlet to debunk harmful and dangerous stereotypes of the Jewish people and to offer up a platform for Jews to see that which unifies rather than divides.

Enjoy uniquely curated art exhibits that tie thematically with performances or events presented by The Braid, so you can experience it all visually and dramatically.

How do they do it?!? The unique artistry we highlight ain’t so secret. Our wonderfully talented artists are happy to share with YOU! Sign up for one of our classes whether you want to hone your craft of writing, visual art, improv and more!

Our program that honors excellence in artistic talent and recognizes commitment to the ideals of our organization is fittingly named in memory of Abby Freeman, a beloved producer and performer who helped shape JWT in its early years and made a lasting imprint on both the organization and our community.

Whether it’s a High Holy Day sermon or a Shabbat Service, our pieces are perfectly suited to be woven through a spiritual service, enhancing the messages of prayers and songs commonly found in Synagogue liturgy.

Together with Jewish Women’s Archive, The Braid has worked tirelessly to capture and archive each story from every single female rabbi from around the globe.
