The Jewish Enrichment Center is a new Jewish center for afterschool and Sunday enrichment in Hyde Park, Chicago. We partner with children in long-term, project-based Jewish exploration, in a warm, Hebrew- and text-rich environment. All Jewish children are welcome and valued at the Jewish Enrichment Center – unaffiliated, congregational, and day school families alike.
We’re growing! This year, the Jewish Enrichment Center offers four multi-age groups, infants through 2nd grade.
