Join our Active Retirees Club senior community to support our friends at the Capital Jewish Museum and to tour the Museum’s new landmark exhibit, LGBTJews in the Federal City. This the first of its kind to explore DC history, Jewish history, and LGBTQ+ history together, drawing from the Museum’s robust LGBTQ+ archive. Immerse yourself in historical and contemporary photography, artifacts, and oral histories. Learn about legal milestones, far-ranging protests, change in religious spaces, and vibrant cultural life.
After our tour, enjoy the Museum’s permanent collection and schmooze with other 65+ locals over coffee.
This event is free of charge, but advance registration is required. If you have any questions, please reach out to Rabbi Atara at acohen@edcjcc.org.
