Professionals from the Jewish culture, art and media worlds engage in dialogue about current developments, visions and goals. That means presenters, artists, funders, and writers who come together to schmooze, enjoy, get inspired, and do business. Featuring keynote Daniel Libeskind and panels with more than forty presenters and artists from theater, film, literary arts, and more! Schmooze gives the Jewish Presenting world an annual chance to get together. The conference this year will be held at New York's newest event space, City Winery, located in Soho New York.
