SUKKAH IN THE SKY

Sukkah in the Sky is held each fall during ​one of ​the intermediary days​ of the​ Jewish harvest festival. During this holiday, it is customary ​for​ Jews to build a​ temporary shelter and invite ​family and ​friends ​t​o join them for a meal inside this ​fragile ​booth called a sukkah.

It is in this tradition that the NYBR Sukkah in the Sky brings ​the ​communit​y​ together to​ share our common spiritual rootage. ​ In 2016, we honored NYPD Commissioner James O'Neill and Ambassador Dani Dayan, Consul General of Israel in New York.
