The Jewish Arts Quarter (JAQ) is a key part of the dynamic Elsternwick revitalisation strategy developed by Glen Eira City Council. A safe civic space with state-of-the-art facilities, JAQ will bring together theatre, art, learning, food, festivals and more in an inclusive space to which all visitors are warmly welcomed.
Glen Eira City Council worked closely with stakeholders to determine a shared vision for the Elsternwick Cultural Precinct. Adding value to the community, it promises to become a world-class cultural centre and thriving meeting place renowned for its diverse mix of experiences of which JAQ is the epicentre.
After years of consultation, stakeholder engagement and design development, the final vision of Elsternwick Cultural Precinct was endorsed by the Council in April 2021.
