The Board of Deputies has announced a new national initiative with the launch of Jewish Culture Month, a UK-wide festival designed to celebrate the breadth and vibrancy of Jewish life.
The first edition will run during the Jewish month of Sivan – 16th May to 15th June 2026. The festival is intended to provide an upbeat, unifying celebration of Jewish creativity and contribution.
Jewish Culture Month will spotlight the work of major Jewish cultural institutions, encourage wider British cultural organisations and schools to engage with Jewish heritage, and support local community centres to open their doors to visitors. The initiative will also highlight Jewish figures in public life and foreground the positive impact the community has had on the nation.
