The Jewish Year 2011: 2011 Wall Calendar

I've been buying this calendar for years. I definitely preferred the old larger format but I've adjusted. This year they enlarged the date blocks even though the calendar itself is the same as last year. The date blocks are now higher than they are wide, rather than square, so there is more room to write stuff.

Can't say that I've sampled any other Jewish calendars because this one has and does everything I need.

Although it's still only 12" x 12" rather than the older 13" format, this does have nice art, a full 16 month calendar (no stupid combining the last four months on one page), and a pretty uncluttered look. It's probably the best one you can get this year, at least.

Beautiful Calendar with pictures from the Jewish Historical Museum--love that there are Jewish dates for Holidays and Fasts. I am learning so much about Jewish tradition and culture just from this calendar.

Thanks!
