More Than a Synagogue

The Jacksonville Jewish Center is a multi-generational congregational family in the heart of Florida’s First Coast. Whether you are a lifelong resident or new to Jacksonville, we welcome you to our 35-acre park-like campus, featuring premier athletics, a swimming facility, and campgrounds.

We are home to the Galinsky Academy, encompassing the Martin J. Gottlieb Day School, Laurie Preschool, Bernard and Alice Selevan Religious School, and Setzer Youth Education. Join us for vibrant Sisterhood programs, award-winning USY youth groups, and a community dedicated to enriching Jewish life.
