ASA Koffler Great Room and Zoom
Through educational and community outreach, exhibitions, and public programs, the Tucson Jewish Museum & Holocaust Center explores the histories and contemporary experiences of Jewish people in Southern Arizona. This presentation draws from Southern Arizona’s rich history of pioneers and pioneering individuals to share the
narrative of how Jews have impacted and shaped this community from the late 1800s to today. Southern Arizona Jews have been influential in every aspect of communal life. As merchants they helped build the barrios and drive commerce. As public servants they helped build local government, grow infrastructure, and establish educational systems. They have served their communities as lawyers, builders, artists, and philanthropists. Come meet a few of the pioneers who helped make Southern Arizona what it is today.
