Gesher Gala 2026

Join us on May 3 at 6:00 pm for A Night in Tel Aviv, an unforgettable evening celebrating Israel, Jewish culture, and the vibrant Gesher Jewish Day School community.

This year’s gala will feature acclaimed Israeli food writer Adeena Sussman, author of the New York Times bestselling cookbooks Shabbat, Sababa, and Zariz. Together, we will gather for an evening inspired by the flavors, warmth, and spirit of Tel Aviv while honoring several impactful members of the Gesher community whose leadership and dedication continue to shape our future.

The Gala is one of Gesher’s most important fundraising events of the year. Funds raised directly support our students by helping bridge the gap between tuition and the true cost of a Gesher education, sustaining our tuition assistance program, and strengthening the school’s long-term financial stability.
