About

We created the magazine to showcase Jewish artists, but in doing this, we realized that being proud of our identities is a statement against antisemitism. We hope that someone reading it would understand the most special joy that the Jewish community experiences, despite the everlasting challenges we face. We strive to ensure that students like ourselves don’t feel alone – and that in times such as these, when it feels as though expressing Judaism is not encouraged, there’s a space created purely to highlight our unique identities.

The JSM is a magazine for students to express themselves and showcase their talents in a space among others just like them, and through the creation of the magazine, we have been able to gain a deeper understanding of who we are as Jewish students – what it means to be Jewish and how to rise against antisemitism while upholding our pride. We hope the JSM provides a similar experience of growth and understanding for you, reader, whether you identify as Jewish or not.
