Mission Statement
About Us Our Mission The House of Israel is dedicated to showcasing the rich and diverse cultural heritage of Israel by exploring various aspects, including history, art, music, literature and cuisine, for the benefit of our visitors and community. Our goal is to provide an in-depth understanding and appreciation of Israel and its diverse people.
Description
House of Israel is open on Saturdays and Sundays to the public. We offer samples of Israeli street food which needs to be baked throughout the day and handed out to those who come in. We give away many items including books to children, these things need to be handed out. We offer children activities such as painting rocks which needs someone to supervise and help the children with. We need someone to greet visitors as they come in. If they have knowledge of Israel, we also need someone to answer questions. There is always the set up and clean up before and after as well.
