Part of the WUJS Israel program is providing its participants with an authentic Israeli experience. Jerusalem is certainly known for its university life, especially among young artists, since some of the best art programs are located in the Capital. Before Pesach, Yonit, the Jerusalem madricha (counselor), took the WUJS Jerusalem group on a tour to various night spots that are hangouts for Israeli university students. The scene is very bohemian and most of the bars are found in little alleyways that are not known to your average tourist. The WUJS participants made sure to take notes and went back to a few of the locations after the tour was over to mingle with some of their Israeli peers and share a beer or two!
