Imagine holding your special event at the Cutler
Plotkin Jewish Heritage Center!   

This Phoenix Point of Pride served as a sanctuary, religious school, and social center for the local Jewish community from 1922-1949.  It later became both a Chinese-speaking and Spanish-speaking Baptist church.  In 2001, the Arizona Jewish Historical Society rescued this space from destruction as a testament to the value of our community and its history.  We have restored the synagogue and annex to their original condition and renamed the facility as the CutlerPlotkin Jewish Heritage Center (in honor of James and Bettie Cutler and Rabbi Albert Plotkin).

 
The facility is available for people of all faiths for functions including weddings, receptions, fundraisers, presentations, seminars, and meetings. 
 
Call 602-241-7870 for more information
 
We are located at 122 E. Culver Street, right behind the Burton Barr Phoenix Public Library.  To reach us, take 2nd Street south from McDowell.
