The Jewish Cultural Center of Reading/Berks

The Jewish Cultural Center (JCC) of Reading is an extension of Jewish life beyond school, the workplace and houses of worship. Its the nucleus of our community and its heart. The JCC is where Jewish life is celebrated, a place where we embrace our Jewish connections. It is the hub of education and Jewish culture for people of all ages. It is where we can grow intellectually, spiritually and socially.

 

Combining tradition with fresh programming and activities, the JCC is about serving you, our members, and working together to meet the broader needs of our ever-changing community. Regardless of your spiritual path, we hope you will consider the JCC your home.

 

The JCC offers a variety of:

 

Classes - Short term classes are offered throughout the year, generally related to literature, current events, art, music, and Judaism.

 

Lectures - Lectures are offered in conjunction with the JCC Annual Book Fair, with the Friendship Circle meetings and at other times throughout the year.

 

Bus Trips - Bus trips may include visits to New York and Philadelphia for museum exhibitions, concerts, and plays. We welcome suggestions from members.

 

Holiday Programs - Join our annual community celebrations for Shabbat, Purim and Chanukah.
