Join us virtually with fellow members of the Central New Jersey community to learn about the impact we have on the land and people of Israel. Hear from renowned chef Lior Lev Sercarz about the Galilee Culinary Institute by JNF (GCI), a one-of-a-kind total-immersion culinary institute, located in the heart of Israel’s northern Galilee region and enjoy a live cooking demo. A pillar of Jewish National Fund-USA’s Go North initiative, GCI combines culinary and restaurant expertise, tourism, and entrepreneurship, and is expected to transform northern Israel into a thriving community and culinary hub.
