TZAVTA("together" in Hebrew) is named after a popular culture club in Tel Aviv. We offer programs, in both Hebrew and English, which focus on Israeli cinema, arts & culture.

Founded in 1996, the TZAVTA community is open to Young Adults and those who are young at heart and are interested in experiencing Israeli art and culture right here in the San Francisco Bay Area. TZAVTA's team of professionals and lay volunteers, in partnership with many other Bay Area organizations , brings the flavor of Israel to the Bay Area through a wide range of events, which include Hebrew discussion groups, Israeli movies, parties and holiday celebrations, outdoor activities, leadership programs and opportunities for giving back to the community.

For more information on our programs, check out our calendar of events.
