The Votes are In


As American Idol is winding down, we're just getting started. Today, the Museum of Jewish Heritage announced the lineup for the Fourth Annual New York's Best Emerging Jewish Artists.


This year’s event will feature host Johnny Lampert and a new line-up of promising performers. Up-and-coming local Jewish artists will take the stage for an evening of comedy, music, and storytelling on Wednesday, June 17 at 7 p.m. The festivities will continue with an after-party and open bar on the third floor terrace overlooking New York Harbor. The after-party is included with the ticket price.

Performers will include musical groups DeLeon and Girls in Trouble, comedian Ray Ellin, and storytellers Sarah Saltzberg and Boris Timanovsky. Ode to Murray Hill, a short film by filmmaker DJ Lubel will also be shown. Moment Magazine will also present a special “Emerging Writer” award to 99-year-old author Harry Bernstein.


Buy your tickets soon, this event sells out every year.
