Synagogue Stories: A Tradition of Change on Lloyd Street – Film Screening

Date

, 12:30PM- 2:30PM

Join the JMM for a screening of our new original film, Synagogue Stories: A Tradition of Change on Lloyd Street. This 36-minute documentary, in production for the last two years, shares the voices of JMM professionals, docents and community leaders to illuminate the history of the Lloyd Street Synagogue and B’nai Israel Synagogue, both anchors of the Jonestown community. The film, produced to increase the accessibility and reach of the rich stories of numerous congregations that called these historic sanctuaries home, offers glimpses of objects held in the museum collection and allows us to hear the voices of those who once worshiped in and those who are connected to these spaces in the present.

Immediately following the screening, engage in an interactive Q&A and hear from the team behind the film, including cinematographer Richard Chisolm.

Weather permitting, join us for a dessert and wine reception, plus a chance to schmooze, following the screening discussion. Kosher dietary laws will be observed.

Register ASAP to confirm your seat, capacity limited.

The project was made possible by the staff and volunteers of the JMM and the support of Maryland Heritage Areas Authority, Herbert Bearman Foundation, Inc., and Baltimore National Heritage Area.
