Join ISSO for a guided tour of the Tenement Museum and step inside the homes of two immigrant families who lived at 97 Orchard Street in the early 20th century. Hear stories of the Rogarshevskys and Baldizzis, explore the experiences of Jewish and Italian immigrants, and learn how immigration, community, and changing government policies shaped life in New York City.
Registration opens on October 12 at 9am.
Everyone is responsible for their own MTA subway ticket to/from the start/end of the tour location. Detailed instructions will be shared with those who sign-up!
