What is Kolture?
Kol, meaning “voice” and “all” in Hebrew, meets culture.
Kolture is the first centralized Jewish arts and culture digital platform, recognizing the power of arts and culture to engage audiences in Jewish life and learning. Kolture is a content delivery platform that provides needed tools to help organizations better engage, inspire, and educate audiences. This is a major new project as JArts grows from a Boston-area in-person arts and culture program presenter to become a robust online resource.
The platform launched as a B2B2C business, focusing first on providing content for existing Jewish communities before targeting individual users. It is populated with content across artforms, curated by 60+ experts across fields.
Development of this concept began in 2020, and the current platform is in beta testing with 70+ member organizations. JArts seeks an experienced Product Manager to serve as the driving force for this project.
