Celebrate Jewish American Heritage Month by exploring Norfolk’s early history through the lens of the Myers family, the first permanent Jewish residents of our borough. We will take a deep dive and explore whether Moses Myers was an exemplar or an outlier. 

Free for Museum members, $10 for non-members.
Registration is required. Space is limited.

This talk will be presented by Rabbi Michael Panitz, in a partnership between the Chrysler Museum of Art and the United Jewish Federation of Tidewater.
