We are taught that Mikvah is such a critical component of Jewish life, that a Mikvah should be built even before a community builds a synagogue or buys a Torah.

​

 

The Columbus Community Mikvah is:

 

• Centrally located.

• A beautiful space with a spa-like environment.

• A space that encourages a spiritual experience.

• Secure and safe.

• Housed in a freestanding building.

• Discreet and dignified.

• Accessible to women and men with physical disabilities.

• Furnished with updated equipment, including a filtration system ensuring the utmost cleanliness of the pools and high standards of hygiene.

• Designed with private, spacious changing rooms and separate immersion pools for women and men as well as one for utensils.

• Supported by a strong group of volunteers, Mikvah members, individuals, and synagogues.

 

​

COMMUNAL IMPACT

 

Maintaining a modern, secure Mikvah with a spa-like atmosphere that is open and inclusive to the entire Jewish community is of the utmost importance.  

 

• We hope to increase support and usage of the Mikvah through educational and outreach programming throughout Columbus and Mid-Ohio.

• Converts' first experiential moment within Judaism will be positive and spiritually uplifting.

• Recognizing that accessibility is not only a structural concern, but also impacts our ability to be a truly inclusive community, the Mikvah is fully accessible.
