GLOE

Overview
The Kurlander Program for GLBTQ Outreach & Engagement connecting LGBTQIA Jews at the Edlavitch DCJCC.
GLOE, the first and only full-time LGBTQIA engagement program at any Jewish Community Center in the world, serves DC’s queer Jewish community (and our friends/allies) through an array of unique and meaningful programs in the areas of arts and culture, community service, holidays and spirituality, social justice, and of course, social events.
Whether your Jewish identity involves creating new LGBTQIA rituals, or if it starts and ends with a bagel at brunch, you’ll fit right in at GLOE.
Calling all Queer Jewish Artists!
This June, we can’t wait to celebrate World Pride with the international queer community!
In honor of World Pride, GLOE is putting together a gallery that will feature art by local queer Jewish artists. Interested in displaying your work? Click here to apply by May 16.
