JW3 - A New Community Centre and Arts Venue For London

Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands as Architects

JW3 is London’s newest community and cultural centre, with a vision to be at the heart of a unified, diverse community, inspired by and engaged in Jewish arts, culture, learning and life.


JEWISH COMMUNITY CENTRE


JW3 is a brand new, state-of-the-art community and cultural centre in London, established for the benefit of the Jewish community, the local community and for London.


JW3’s vision is to be at the heart of a vibrant, unified, diverse community, inspired by and engaged in Jewish arts, culture, learning and life by creating outstanding events and activities whose diversity reflects the diversity of our community. We will seek to increase the quality, variety and volume of Jewish conversation in London and beyond, bringing Jews of all stripes together and being open and accessible to the widest possible range of people.


A home for all


• JW3 will be a warm, welcoming venue, a truly inviting space, in which all Jews will be able to gather, feel comfortable, meet people, and feel at home. • JW3 will be at the heart of the community. We will promote the best of Jewish values and appeal to all who are interested in Jewish life. • JW3 will be open to everyone. An important part of our mission is to create better understanding between different communities and cultures.


A vibrant destination


• JW3’s purpose-built building will house a rich, diverse and inspiring range of events and activities – cultural, educational and recreational. • We will offer the very best of Jewish programming to engage audiences from across London and beyond. • We will commission creative, cutting-edge arts and cultural activities; we will curate fresh, ‘talked-about’ festivals and events; we will nurture and support new and existing creative talent.


A revitalising community hub • JW3 aims to bring added vitality and confidence to British Jewry, filling it with a fresh sense of unity, focus and purpose. • We will actively encourage the sharing of scarce communal resources, knowledge and expertise, and will create opportunities for collaborative partnerships between organisations and programme providers. • JW3 will enable cross-fertilisation of ideas, nurture talent, and help develop the leaders of tomorrow. • JW3 will also be a platform from which leading programme providers and partner organisations can deliver their own activities.
