Description

Did you know that the 250th anniversary of the United States’ founding is also the 150th anniversary of the Capital Jewish Museum’s historic synagogue? Bring the whole family to learn about the past, build on the present, and imagine the future with the help of our friends from the National Building Museum. We’ll go behind the scenes of both museums’ collections, celebrate Jewish American stories of the semiquincentennial, create a community time capsule, and more.
