Moishe House NYC – Crown Heights
Hey! Weʼre Yonah and Daniel, two young professionals who are passionate about building a Jewish community
thatʼs creative, expressive, and genuinely nourishing. Our Moishe House Pod is rooted in values of self-discovery,
social justice, and creative expression. We aim to create a space where people can explore Jewish life in ways that
feel meaningful, accessible, and alive. We love jamming with friends, cooking plant-based meals, picnics in the
park, yoga, and cozy Shabbat dinners. We love collaborating with local artists, educators, and organizations to
create unique experiences. And, most of all, connecting like-minded people who are excited to be in community.
