Form 990, Part III, Line 1, Description of Organization Mission:The Jewish Historical Society of Greater Washington (JHSGW) and its Lillian & Albert Small Jewish Museum explores the past, present, and future of Jewish life in the nation's capital to inspire reflection, connection, and action. The JHSGW was incorporated in 1965 as a nonprofit dedicated to preserving Jewish history in the Washington area. In 1969, the Society moved the historic 1876 Adas Israel Synagogue to save it from demolition. After restoration, the synagogue, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was opened to the public and has been maintained by the Society as a site for visitors to experience Jewish history through archival collections, exhibits, and educational programs. The Society is now on the verge of a major transformation. As part of the Capitol Crossing development project, the synagogue will move one block to become the centerpiece of an adjacent new 30,000 square-foot Jewish Museum. The new Museum will serve several critical functions: engaging audiences in the history of Jewish life in the nation's capital; sparking reflection among multiple generations about the relevance of Jewish Washington's history; encouraging visitors to reflect on the role they can play in bringing about change; and collecting and preserving historical resources. Planning for the new museum is underway and a major focus of the Society's current work. Although the historic synagogue is closed during the construction and museum planning process, the Society continues to engage the public through a variety of educational programs, walking tours, lectures, school programs, lectures, and other activities. The Society's collections of historic artifacts, photographs, documents, and oral histories continue to grow and are accessible for researchers in the community and around the world.
