Join your fellow OLLI members for a special guided visit to The Temple, one of Atlanta's most historic and influential religious institutions.
Founded in 1867, The Temple is Atlanta's oldest synagogue and a cornerstone of Reform Judaism in the South. Located in Midtown Atlanta, this remarkable congregation has played a significant role in the city's religious, cultural, and social justice history for more than 150 years. In 2009, Newsweek recognized The Temple as one of the most vibrant and dynamic Jewish congregations in the nation.
During our docent-led tour, we'll explore the beautiful sanctuary and campus while learning about The Temple's rich history, stunning architecture, and enduring commitment to community engagement and social justice. Today, The Temple is home to more than 4,000 members and is known for its welcoming and inclusive spirit, embracing individuals and families of all backgrounds.
Whether you're interested in Atlanta history, architecture, faith traditions, or simply discovering one of the city's treasured landmarks, this promises to be a fascinating and enlightening experience.
