The Speakers Bureau

The Speakers Bureau is a dynamic program of the Jewish Museum of Maryland that offers public speakers for groups and engagements around the state of Maryland. The Bureau is composed of knowledgeable professionals, members of the board, staff and volunteers of the Museum. When you choose one of our speakers, your group will benefit from new insights into exciting aspects of Jewish history and culture.

The cost to book a speaker is $50.00, plus the cost of mileage for the speaker to travel to and from the event (except for the Immigrants Trunk program). Please contact Abby Krolik at akrolik@jewishmuseummd.org or 410.732.6400 x235 for more information or to schedule a program.
