Collecting Jewish Life: Recent Acquisitions @ Bradford Reform Synagogue

ON DISPLAY AT BRADFORD REFORM SYNAGOGUE FROM 27/04/2025

At the Jewish Museum London, we are committed to preserving and sharing the diverse stories and experiences of the Jewish community in Britain. Our collections reflect the dynamic ways in which Jewish life continues to be shaped by migration, faith, family, culture, and modern-day challenges.

This new display presents a selection of items acquired over the past year in response to three key collecting initiatives;

Collecting Inclusive Stories focuses on everyday photographs that celebrate the varied Jewish identities in modern society

Documenting the Present invites members of the community to share their personal responses to the impact the events of Oct 7th have had on their lives as British Jews

Reflections invited individuals to engage with our collection and produce creative outputs in response to the stories that resonated with them.

Bradford Reform Synagogue is open for events, monthly Shabbat services, High Holy Days, and for school visits throughout the year. For up to date information visit the Synagogue’s Facebook page
