NEW JERSEY JEWISH FILM FESTIVAL MARCH 2026

Event Description

Provocative, moving, hilarious, riveting, edgy, fun... these are just a few of the buzzwords you hear in the lobby after a New Jersey Jewish Film Festival movie or event.

Founded in 2000 by Caren and Herb Ford, the New Jersey Jewish Film Festival has earned the reputation as one of the premier Jewish cultural events in the state.

We promise a roster of first-run Israeli films that are nothing short of remarkable. These are films you cannot see anywhere else in our area! We will also offer a mix of other Jewish films, the best speakers and commentators available, and several out-of-festival events. The Festival is one gateway for people to explore what it means to be Jewish through a cultural experience that enriches the lives of thousands.
