Eldridge Street Synagogue and Museum

The Eldridge Street Museum's mission and purpose is to present the culture, history and traditions of the great wave of Jewish immigrants to the Lower East Side drawing parallels with the diverse cultural communities that have settled in America.

Tours, exhibits and public and educational programs tell the story of the generations that carried religious and communal customs to a new country and celebrate America's broad cultural traditions. Combining architecture, history and Jewish culture, a visit to Eldridge Street is a meaningful experience for groups of all backgrounds, ages and interests.

Information and Podcast Created by the Lower East Side Business Improvement District.
