Young New Yorkers looking for community on the Upper West Side have a new person to know. The Marlene Meyerson JCC Manhattan has hired a new program director to lead its programming for people in their 20s and 30s, and there are two upcoming chances to meet her in person.
Talia Wallman is the new Program Director for the JCC’s Gottesman Center for Jewish Living and the Selma and Lawrence Ruben Center for 20s + 30s.
Talia is originally from South Florida and has lived in New Jersey for the past five years. She graduated from Florida Atlantic University in 2017 with a degree in Judaic Studies and double minors in Political Science and Sociology.
She’s passionate about building meaningful communities and giving people opportunities to connect, and she’s excited to keep growing and strengthening the JCC’s 20s + 30s program. She’s thrilled to be part of such a vibrant community and is looking forward to everything the year ahead will bring.
When she’s not at work, you’ll usually find Talia working on her latest crochet or knitting project, or spending time with friends and family.
Want to say hello? You can meet Talia at the 20s + 30s Friendsgiving Shabbat Dinner, as well as at the Gelt Gala, the JCC’s annual 20s + 30s Chanukah party. You can register for both online.
The Marlene Meyerson JCC Manhattan is at 334 Amsterdam Avenue at West 76th Street.
