New year, new routines—and a perfect time to build momentum you can actually keep. At JCC Indianapolis, the first few weeks of the year bring a mix of wellness, community, and events that make showing up feel easy (and fun).
Make space for inspiration at the JCC Indianapolis Gallery Opening: Erin Patton-McFarren’s “Um Passo a Frente” on Thursday, January 22, 2026, at 5:30 PM. Come for the opening, stay for the conversations, and enjoy a midweek reset.
On Sunday, January 25, 2026, at 4:00 PM, settle in for Ronen Chamber Ensemble: “Brilliant Winds” in the Laikin Auditorium. It’s the kind of winter afternoon plan that feels special—but still comfortably local.
