The Whirl: Celebrating 150 years of Jewish Life

On Mar. 8, members and friends of the historic Beth Meyer Synagogue marked the 150th anniversary of its leadership of the greater Raleigh Jewish community. The evening featured video remarks from Gov. Josh Stein and an Order of the Long Leaf Pine award presentation to Dr. Burton Horwitz, a past president of the synagogue. Guests enjoyed dancing, noshing on Meez Market & Catering’s kosher spread and a gallery of photos over the decades at Beth Meyer.
