Havurah is the bearer of a new Jewish renaissance.

We are a collective of young Jewish artists, painters, writers, poets, musicians, filmmakers, photographers, and creative souls of all kinds in New York City, ushering in a new generation of artistry. 

Our movement arrives at a moment in American Jewry when artistic pursuits are not considered to be integral to religious life. At Havurah, we are reclaiming a Jewish tradition tracing back to Bezalel that sees art as a mechanism for engaging with the divine and, consequently, as crucial to spiritual practice. We believe that every Jewish society needs to foster the artistic inclination in order to enrich the spiritual lives of its members. 

With these principles in our hearts, we aspire to: 

Establish a community for Jewish artists in New York City to meet, converse, and collaborate with one another 

Invigorate a generation of young Jews and restore the Jewish artistic impulse 

Showcase and publicize the works of talented Jewish artists
