Makom Families is a community for families seeking engaging Jewish learning, Jewish celebrations, fellowship in raising Jewish children, and rootedness in Jewish values. Makom Families nourishes Jewish families of all backgrounds with high quality, joyous, and meaningful experiences. We are a diverse community of downtown families, representing all different walks of life.

Makom Families focuses on family-oriented programming for the broader Makom: Creative Downtown Judaism community. Together, we celebrate Jewish community, creativity, and traditions throughout the Jewish year, with events like apple-picking for Rosh Hashanah, creating a Shabbat picnic in the park, or telling the story of Purim with a puppet show. All our programs are engaging, informative, and fun.
