On
December 4, The Museum at Eldridge Street hosted
a Grand Re-dedication and Landmark Distinction
Awards Dinner to celebrate the re-opening of the
National Historic Landmark 1887 Eldridge
Street Synagogue and to honor Lorinda
Ash Ezersky, Jeffrey Gural and Michael
Weinstein for their leadership in the
restoration effort and in the creation of the new
Museum at Eldridge Street (formerly known as the
Eldridge Street Project). The event,
which raised $1 million for the Museum thanks to
the 500 guests in attendance, began with cocktails
at the synagogue followed by dinner at Capitale
in New York City.
Recently, the Museum at Eldridge Street celebrated
the grand re-opening of the Eldridge Street Synagogue,
the culmination of a 20-year, $20 million restoration
effort. The new Museum is a vital cultural
and educational center celebrating more than a
century of Jewish life in America.
