Explore Jewish Life in Lake Norman
Resources
The Lake Norman area hosts a fast-growing Jewish community of retirees and commuters to Charlotte. The area offers waterfront recreation at the lake as well as cultural opportunities at nearby Davidson College. Residents have access to Charlotte’s big-city sports, entertainment, and employment while enjoying small-town living including the towns of Davidson, Cornelius, and Huntersville. The very active Jewish Council of Lake Norman hosts food, film festivals, and lecture series. Congregations can be found in Davidson, Concord, Statesville, and Salisbury.
Supported by the Jewish Federation of Greater Charlotte, the Jewish Council of Lake Norman for the past twelve years has provided an active schedule of cultural and educational programming that enriches local Jewish life, ranging from a Deli Fest to a film festival, Israel to Holocaust commemoration.
Located in Davidson, Temple Kol Tikvah is the only Reform congregation in the Lake Norman area. Temple “Kol Tikvah” seeks to live up to its name and be a “voice of hope” in the community. TKT’s mission is to explore the modern Jewish experience. At TKT your voice is heard and helps shape your Jewish experience. TKT is led by two co-senior rabbis and a full-time youth and education director.
