What is Jew It Yourself?

A way to host a fun event for the Jewish Community!

WAYS YOU CAN USE JIY: JIY is both for Jewish events like Shabbat dinner, a Havdalah event, or a fun celebration of another Jewish holiday AND for any event that allows you to engage in Jewish community- think fun, creative, and specific to you!

Hillel will provide the necessary space and materials (snacks, supplies, etc.) to make your event a JIY success!

You can either host an event in your own home OR reserve space to host a Jewish event in the Hillel building*!

*we ask that if your event is hosted in the Hillel building, it be open to the greater Hillel community

IDEAS INCLUDE:

  • Shabbat dinner with your friends at your dorm or apartment!
  • A trip to the farmer’s market & cooking Shabbat brunch!
  • Havdalah and movie night in the Hillel lounge
  • Jewelry making, board game night, cupcake decorating, the possibilities are endless!
