How Jews Became Citizens: Highlights from the Sid Lapidus Collection – Live Event

What does citizenship mean to you? What are the rights and responsibilities that come with citizenship?

Join curator Ivy Weingram for a one-hour in-person tour in which she addresses these meaningful questions in the special exhibition, How Jews Became Citizens: Highlights from the Sid Lapidus Collection. The Lapidus collection tells the complex, ongoing story of the Jewish people’s path to emancipation—the process through which Jews obtained rights—in Europe, across centuries. Read more about the exhibition  here.

This tour will also be offered on February 16 at 6 pm.

Please note that this tour is not available on Zoom.

The exhibit and program have been made possible by the generous support of Sid and Ruth Lapidus, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature, and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
