KFAR Jewish Arts Center

stimulating, promoting and producing the next generation of Jewish Expression

Jewish culture is vibrant and alive in America. No longer relegated to bagel brunches, it is at the core of a contemporary Jewish identity being explored asserted throughout the arts; in the recording studio, on the stage, on film and the page.

KFAR Jewish Arts Center leads this Jewish cultural renaissance in Chicago, connecting artists and performers exploring their heritage through their craft to audiences thirsty for contemporary Jewish cultural expression.

KFAR events tell the story of who we are and emphasize the common culture that unites us as a people. They connect us to our past and help us create a vibrant future. But they also weave the particular Jewish present into the fabric of the cultural context demonstrating what our heritage shares with and contributes to rest of world.

KFAR is the sole organization that advocates for a Jewish voice in the World Music Festival, presents Grammy- winning Jewish artists, debuts new Jewish music in Chicago and wins critical praise for its programs.
