The Synagogues of Newark:
Where we gathered and prayed, studied and celebrated
The Synagogues of Newark: Where we gathered and prayed, studied and celebrated chronicles the history of Newark’s Jewish houses of worship from the 19th century to the present. Combining photography, archival materials, and oral histories, this exhibit explores the architectural, spiritual, and social legacy of the synagogues that once graced the city’s landscape in the past and documents the presence of the Jewish community in Newark today.
