At Queen Mary Students' Union, we celebrate the rich diversity of our student body throughout the year. Each month brings a new reason to celebrate our students' unique backgrounds and contributions. This January, following the winter exams, we are excited to host Jewish Heritage Fortnight—a special observance dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the vibrant Jewish community at QMSU.
What is Jewish Heritage Fortnight? Jewish Heritage is recognized worldwide at different times of the year. For instance, May is Jewish Heritage Month in America, celebrating the significant contributions of the American Jewish community. Here at QMSU, from 26 January to 8 February, our student representatives and staff have curated a series of events and promotions across our campuses.
How can you be involved? Joining in our Jewish Heritage Fortnight celebrations is easy! Visit our website to discover a full listing of events and details on how to attend. Most events are free, and you can easily book your spot online. Participating in Jewish Heritage Fortnight is a fantastic opportunity to meet new people, engage with diverse perspectives, and deepen your understanding of Jewish culture and history, Jewish Heritage Fortnight offers something for everyone at QMSU.
