BECOME A SPONSOR AND SUPPORT THE MUSIC AT BJ

BJ Members, Jon and Orli Silver, have generously offered to match all Sponsorship level donations, up to $25,000. 

Join them and become a Sponsor!

Music is central to all of our services and the BJ paradigm has been adopted at synagogues across the country, in Israel and in Latin America. Help us build on that achievement and strengthen our capacity for innovation and creativity as we explore new melodies, new musical modes and new sounds. This will constitute a cornerstone of BJ's projected Prayer, Spirituality and Music Institute.
