Did you know the first American to convert to Buddhism on American soil was Jewish? Charles Strauss converted in 1893 at an exposition on world religions. Join us for this panel discussion on the connections between Judaism and Buddhism. As with all Late Night on Lloyd Streets there will be plenty of snacks and drinks. Late Night on Lloyd Street programs are FREE thanks to generous support from the Grandchildren of Harvey M. and Lyn P. Meyerhoff Philanthropic Fund.
