We Embrace Jewish Diversity
PJ Library Bay Area welcomes the incredible diversity of Jewish experience. We are proud to be part of a community that includes families of all backgrounds, of single or multiple faiths, and at all levels of Jewish knowledge and observance. Join other families as we explore traditions, celebrate holidays, and build community across the Bay Area.

Interested in finding families in your area?
Thank you PJ Library! You’ve brought our little community of families closer together now that you have taught us how to braid challah. My son and I love our new ritual of making Shabbat every Friday. It would not be the same without you!
