The City of Philadelphia has always maintained a strong connection to the state of Israel, one that in recent years has only grown closer and more productive, in large part due to the commitment, compassion and collaboration of our local communities.
That bond grew even stronger earlier last month with the announcement of a tour — the result of a partnership between the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia and The Philadelphia Orchestra — that will bring the orchestra to Israel for a series of concerts in the holy land in celebration of Israel’s 70th year.
