Touro Synagogue

Newport, Rhode Island

The Touro Synagogue Foundation tour guide staff serve as Touro Synagogue’s public face – providing information, hospitality, and orientation to visitors of all ages and backgrounds. More importantly, they are responsible for sharing Touro’s living legacy with visitors from all over the region, across the United States, and beyond, in the form of tours for the general public, schools, and other groups. In these tours, guides share the remarkable story of America’s oldest synagogue and the great ideas, like liberty of conscience and religious diversity, that Touro Synagogue has come to embody and symbolize.

The primary season runs from May through October. Guides generally work nine to eighteen hours per week depending on the month.
