THE SYNAGOGUE BY THE SEA
Where Venice meets Santa Monica, Mishkon serves western Los Angeles. Our welcoming congregation is egalitarian and participatory, while remaining traditional. Our synagogue embraces interfaith families with open arms and our Mishkon events and services emphasize music, food, spirit, and accessibility through our intimate and friendly community. Mishkon appeals to those who respect traditions while remaining open to new thoughts and ideas. Much like its Venice environment, our unique character attracts people from every profession, including artists, writers, educators and intellectuals, who serve as each other’s extended family.
