The 14^th annual Neustadt Jewish Arts, Authors, Movies and Music (JAAMM) Festival takes place Oct. 6-Dec. 21 with in-person, virtual and hybrid offerings.

The JAAMM Festival is a program of Denver’s JCC Mizel Arts and Culture Center. It is the organization’s flagship cultural arts program, and focuses on literary arts and Jewish-interest entertainment.

“The Mizel Arts and Culture staff continue to program the most diverse and exciting programs,” said Kathy Neustadt in the news release. Neustadt’s Piñon Trail Foundation is the title sponsor of the festival. “This year’s lineup is no exception and may be the best yet.”

This year’s JAAMM Festival features nearly 20 events including stand-up comedians, workshops, music, movies, author lectures and more. A full festival lineup can be found online at jccdenver.org/jaamm.

“The goal of the JAAMM Festival is to bring diverse and unique cultural content to our community,” said Rich Cowden, general manager of the JCC Mizel Arts and Culture Center, in a news release. “Perhaps no festival in the state offers such a wide range of offerings as JAAMM, and we’re working hand-in-hand with the artists to guarantee superb experiences for both our existing and new audiences.”
