Assembly

Assembly comes from the Hebrew word Edah (עדה), the full community of the Jewish people. Assembly has two definitions: (1) a gathering of people, and (2) a process of building. And that’s what we’re here to do: to create deeper, thicker forms of Jewish community. We work in three ways: 1. We start totally new projects — We build new forms of Jewish life (like Atra or IYUN) that “spin out” of our venture studio once they’ve scaled (like Base). 2. We share our community building expertise with other organizations — We build bespoke training and curriculum with our collaborators (like PJ Library). 3. We support outstanding entrepreneurs building new communities — These “unicorns” are growing the Jewish communities of the future with our guidance and mentorship (like Selah).
