The Borscht Belt Museum Day Trip

The Borscht Belt is history. Now it has a museum in Ellenville, NY, dedicated to preserving the legacy of the Borscht Belt resort era, and celebrating its history as a refuge from bigotry, the cradle of stand-up comedy and a cultural catalyst that left deep imprints on America.

There is a special reason to go with us in October – the museum is opening only for our group on that day, you will view the beautiful fall foliage during the drive. 

Trip includes roundtrip transportation to and from the JCC, museum admission, brunch at Cohen’s Bakery, a history lecture of the Borscht Belt, a personal museum tour from a Borscht Belt expert and a rare, close-up look at the abandoned Nevele Grand Hotel.

Tuesday, 10/22, 10:30 am -4 pm, $120 Member/$136 Public, Limited Spots – RSVP Early
