Educators of all backgrounds are invited to come learn, connect, and read to usher in Jewish American Heritage Month 2026! We’ll hear from a panel of local Jewish authors, teachers, and librarians about how to use literature as a bridge to understanding Jewish life and culture.  Panelists will be announced soon!  

Walk away with a Jewish American Heritage book list, new connections to local authors, and lesson inspiration for May.  Plus, the Museum will be open late just for teachers and other school staff to explore DC’s Jewish history, educator resources, school group visits, and other offerings for educators.
