The magnificent, newly restored Eldridge Street Synagogue provides an unparalleled setting for students of all backgrounds to learn about immigration patterns to New York and Jewish history and culture. The synagogue is the only remaining public marker of the great Jewish migration to the Lower East Side.
Our historian-trained educators will lead students on an exploration of the 19th-century landmark and teach about the spiritual, political and cultural life of the building’s immigrant founders. Students will also visit the building’s new Limud (“learning’) Center, which features interactive exhibits on Lower East Side history and synagogue design.
All programs comply with the New York State learning standards.
