The Diamond Foundation Centre for Jewish Campus Life offers some of UBC’s newest, most dynamic and flexible multipurpose spaces, in a magnificent new West Coast contemporary building at the very heart of campus.

We can also accommodate most audio-visual requests including microphones, podium, speakers and pull-down screens.
