Jewish Museum and Cultural Center (JMCC)

In addition to being a completely restored orthodox synagogue available for tours and events, the jmcc offers programs throughout the year suitable for all families, regardless of ethnic or religious background. Our "coming to america: an immigration study program" fulfills the Virginia sol for local area schools. Ongoing programs include our music, lecture, and movie series, as well as a significantly expanded immigration exhibit and our growing archives of major Jewish entities and persons in the hampton roads area. The organization's annual music series celebrated 14 years of performances. The program has presented four programs each year. Annual Chevra cinema series highlights Jewish subjects, history, writers, and producers. Each film features a presenter who introduces the film and leads a relavent discussion following the film. Ongoing tours and programs based around the exhibit on Jewish immigration, the journey to america, and the Jewish contribution to the american culture are offered to the public and private organizations.
