Jewish Experiences at the Philly J

Philadelphia’s Jewish community is vibrant and diverse, and the JCC is right at the center of the action.  And everything we do here at the Philly J is infused with our Jewish values that helps foster our diverse, inclusive, and welcoming community. We hope you will feel at home with our Jewish programs designed to be welcoming to everyone across all Jewish backgrounds, as well as families from other faiths and cultures.

Families with young and school aged children are invited to experience special holiday and Shabbat activities throughout the year. From Hannukah celebrations to Purim Fest, our special events at the Philly J are sure to be a hit for the whole family year-round. Our programs and events are open to the all, and everyone is invited. Spend your holidays with your Philly J family.

Join us for engaging stories, music, and play for Jewish families with their babies ages 0-18 months old.

Bring a blanket to sit on and anything else you need for comfort. Siblings and any caregivers are welcome.
