Visitors Flock To Museum Exhibition Featuring Display Of 250 Years Of Hasidic Judaism


Jerusalem - There are 250 years of Hasidic Judaism on display at the “A World Apart Next Door” exhibition in Jerusalem. The exhibit, which opened two months ago, has brought in about 1,300 visitors per day, half of whom are ultra-Orthodox.
An article today by the Daily Mail quotes the museum’s director, James Snyder, as saying, “It’s a phenomenon – a kind of blockbuster. It’s definitely exceeded expectations. For the ultra-Orthodox, it’s the first opportunity to see their communal culture elevated and celebrated in a museum setting. For everyone else who sees members of the community on the streets, it’s an opportunity to learn about a culture of which you can’t help but be aware, but about which you know little.”
