The building, which was built in the Greek Revival style in1840 after the Great Charleston Fire of 1838 destroyed the original, is a stunning National Historic Landmark, a highlight of the Holy City; it is now the oldest synagogue in continual use in the USA.

We'll continue our celebration next door at the , located in the Ryder Hotel. Connect with like-minded fellow members of the tribe who are also top producers and immerse yourself in a supportive community to collaborate without ego.
