Sixth

Sixth Profile and History

Sixth & I is a center for arts, entertainment, and ideas and a synagogue that reimagines how religion and community can enhance people's everyday lives. Housed within a revitalized historic space dating back to 1908 in the heart of the Nation's Capital, our unexpected mix of cultural and spiritual programs embraces the multi-faceted identities of those we serve and offers wide-ranging, eye-openi ng, and accessible experiences to inspire more meaningful and fulfilling lives. Our arts and culture programming-including talks, concerts, and comedy shows-entertains and enlightens the widest possible audience with innovative experiences that fuel curiosity, spark inspiration, and promote interaction with preeminent thought leaders and pop culture influencers. Our Jewish programming-including education, Shabbat services, holiday celebrations, and social justice work-offers dynamic ways for those primarily in their 20s and 30s to engage with Jewish values, ideas, and traditions on their own terms and without judgment. As a multi-denominational and non-membership spiritual home, Sixth & I works to foster community among people at a similar stage of life, figuring out what matters to them and who they want to be.
