** additional time of 12:45pm added since the first one is selling out** It's back! Join OTM's guest guide Ami Greener on a walking tour about notable Jewish contributions to DC history on Christmas Day. Want something interesting to do while everything is closed? We have you covered.
This tour goes through the Judiciary Square and Gallery Place neighborhoods highlighting the stories of Jewish-American Washingtonians who made their mark. Learn the answers to such questions as, who was the first US president to visit a DC synagogue while in office, and why he donated $10? Why did the first synagogue built in DC have wheels? Which historic synagogue was saved at the last minute from turning into a nightclub? And who were the first Jews to live in this new city on the Potomac?
This 2 hour tour begins in front of Hillel International at 800 8th Street NW and ends in front of the Capital Jewish Museum. Contact Ami Greener at [email protected] if you are interested in entering the museum after the tour so that he can make an accurate reservation.
