Description

In honor of World AIDS Day, join us for a look back at the AIDS crisis and the continuing battle against the disease. Dig deeper into the response to the AIDS epidemic in the Jewish community – and the changes over the 1980s and 90s. Hear from healthcare workers, activists, volunteers, and more for a meaningful evening of recollection and resilience. Includes access to LGBTJews in the Federal City. Come early to see the exhibit!

 

In partnership with Bet Mishpachah.

 

Our new Voices series uses storytelling to create opportunities for diverse Greater Washington area residents to examine and share their experiences.

Capital Jewish Museum

The Capital Jewish Museum explores the Jewish experience in the national capital region and inspires visitors to connect, reflect, and act—connect personally and collectively, reflect on the relevance of the past to today, and act on behalf of their communities and values. With its experimental spirit, the Museum connects the past to the present through thought-provoking exhibitions, dynamic programming, and creative public experiences. The Community Action Lab invites visitors to engage through hands on-activities, resources, workshops, games, and more.
