Washington State Jewish Historical Society

Mission

The Washington State Jewish Historical Society's mission is to preserve and present the history of Jewish life in Washington state. The Society fosters awareness and appreciation of the experiences, the diverse culture, and the significant contributions of Jews, past and present. We build bridges with communities by sharing the stories of our collective histories and serving as an educational resource.

Strengthening Community Heritage Through Oral History

Oral histories are a vital tool for preserving memories and experiences. Through oral history, we can save narratives that might otherwise be lost, providing invaluable insight into the diverse experiences and contributions of individuals within the Jewish community of Washington State.
