🎉 Today, JW3 is 13.
Which can only mean one thing: it’s our Bar Mitzvah!
13 years ago today, we opened our doors for the first time. Since then, a lot has happened inside them.
There have been packed theatres and quiet conversations. Dancing, debating, learning, laughing and singing. Festivals, films, food, families and friendships. Celebrations and commemorations. And quite a lot of debates about whether we serve beigels or bagels.
Most importantly, there have been hundreds of thousands of people who have come through our doors every year to make JW3 what it is.
So today we’re looking back at some of the memories from our first 13 years, but we’re also looking forward. Because, like any newly Bar Mitzvah’d 13-year-old, we’re really only just getting started.
And there’s a rather lovely bit of full-circle timing this week. When JW3 first opened, Eran Tibi was the chef behind Zest. Thirteen years later, he’s back in the building for his four-day Succot pop-up. Some things change. Some people just can’t keep away. ❤️
Thank you to everyone who has been part of our first 13 years.
Here’s to what comes next. 🥂
