Membership

Temple Israel of the City of New York is like a family of families; a warm, welcoming community on New York’s Upper East Side. We would love to speak with you about your interest in membership.

Temple Israel is a place where the nurturing of community, learning and spirituality are embraced and celebrated. We invite you to take a closer look and let the warmth of our congregation be a part of your year-round life. After all, in every generation, the synagogue remains the primary address of the Jewish community. Our members find a second home here to build their family and connect with their community, and we hope you do, too.

Enrollment in our Early Childhood Learning Center, our Religious School, and Sanctuary seating for the High Holy Days, are reserved for members of the congregation. In order to make membership accessible for everyone who wish to become a part of our community, Temple Israel offers a variety of membership options.
