The Foundation for Jewish Culture (formerly the National Foundation for Jewish Culture) is the leading advocate for Jewish cultural creativity and preservation in America. Since 1960, it has nurtured new generations of writers, filmmakers, artists, composers, choreographers and scholars. The Foundation invests in creative individuals in order to nurture a vibrant and enduring Jewish identity, culture and community. Its goals are achieved through the provision of grants, recognition awards, networking opportunities and professional development services. They collaborate with cultural institutions, Jewish organizations, consortia and funders to support the work of these artists and scholars. The Foundation also educates and builds audiences to provide meaningful Jewish cultural experiences to the American public, and advocates for the importance of Jewish culture as a core component of Jewish life.
