Exploring how the Jewish community settled, prospered, and helped shape the economy, politics, and culture of Los Angeles, and how the diversity and dynamism of the city has transformed the local Jewish community for the past 160 years.
A primary goal of the exhibition is to highlight how the history of Jews in Los Angeles is both a familiar and a unique story. The exhibition brings into question the assumptions made about the role and history of the Jewish community in Los Angeles.
