Event criteria:

  • Targeted toward families with children in the PJ Library and PJ Our Way demographic (i.e. expectant parents through parents of pre-teens/teens).
  • Open to families who are not members (if you are a membership institution).
  • Free or low-cost.
  • Requires little or no prior Jewish knowledge to access or participate.
  • Does not require commitment.
Submission guidelines:
  • Please specify who is hosting the event in the "Event Name" field, e.g. "Virtual Family Fun Day with Temple Shalom" or "Temple Shalom's Virtual Family Fun Day".
  • Please include a 1-2 sentence description of the event. Event descriptions like: "PJ Library story time" and "Family Shabbat service" are not sufficiently descriptive.
  • Make sure your description is welcoming, and explain any words or phrases that could be confusing or barriers for new families.
  • Submission of an event does not guarantee inclusion in the calendar.
  • Publication of an event can take up to 3 business days.
Online events:
  • Please select "Online" from the "Location" drop-down menu. 
  • Include a direct link to your online event in either the "Website" or "Facebook" field OR explain how families will receive their link (e.g. via email) in the description field.

Event Information

 
Events outside our eight-county Metro New York area may be posted at the discretion of the PJ Library team in New York.
This should be a tweet-length description of your event! Max 160 characters.
The more details the better. What kind of food? Are siblings allowed? What kind of activities will there be?
