ART, PERFORMANCES & CONVERSATIONS

All New Center programs speak to Jewish audiences and to the broader community. Attracting large and diverse groups of people, our past programs have explored wide-ranging themes and ideas, including: the Exodus story told from multiple cultural perspectives; the blending of Klezmer and swing music; and the influence of a Jewish up-bringing on the lives and careers of acclaimed writers, artists, musicians, actors, political figures and humorists.

We invite everyone to come and experience the insight, passion, humanity, and humor that lie at the heart of our programs.

As president of Bravo, Lauren Zalaznick lifted reality television out of its swampy, bug-eating roots into the more rarified air of fashion, beauty, and haute cuisine. With hit shows like “Top Chef,” “Project Runway,” “Shear Genius,” and the “Real Housewives” series, Zalaznick turned shopping and make-overs into spectator sports and transformed Bravo into the must-watch network for savvy, style-conscious women. Now President of NBC Universal Women and Lifestyle Entertainment Networks, Zalaznick is one of the most important media executives in the country and was named among  Time’s “100 World’s Most Influential People” and Fortune’s “50 Most Powerful Women.”

She will talk with Emmy Award-winning television journalist Joyce Kulhawik about her career and the future of the entertainment industry.
