Creating community through the universal language of music — where melody transcends prejudice and rhythm builds connection.
Proudly celebrating our Jewish identity and building bridges of understanding
This isn't just another music festival – it's a powerful statement about cultural exchange and community building. By partnering with regional and national performers, PJMF will transform Philadelphia into a vibrant hub where Jewish musical expression meets mainstream appreciation.
PJMF welcomes Jewish artists performing music from a wide variety of genres, pushing boundaries and defying expectations.
What is the Philly Jewish Music Festival?
PJMF is a day-long festival with one or more stages featuring:
- Local, regional, and national Jewish performing artists from a broad range of genres and styles.
- An evening performance by a well-known headline performer
- Children’s programming featuring music from local Jewish children’s musicians and age-appropriate activities
Who PJMF Serves
While the primary market for the Festival is Philadelphia’s Jewish community, PJMF will engage the broader Philadelphia community through a high-profile headlining artist and a focus on local artists and partner organizations.
The Festival also provides an opportunity for local Jewish artists to raise their profile in the community and support their work through ancillary sales (CDs, download cards, and swag) as well as a performance fee.
PJMF is a sponsored project of Fractured Atlas, a non-profit arts service organization. Fractured Atlas will receive grants for the charitable purposes of Philly Jewish Music Festival, provide oversight to ensure that grant funds are used in accordance with grant agreements, and provide reports as required by the grantor. Contributions for the charitable purposes of Philly Jewish Music Festival must be made payable to Fractured Atlas and are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.
Stay Tuned! Good Things Coming Soon.
