Flushing, Queens is famous for many things, however one of the top things would have to be the Flushing Remonstrance. This successful protest against the Dutch Director-General, Peter Stuyvesant, was ultimately successful in achieving one of the first instances of religious tolerance in the colonies.

Today, Flushing is home to a diverse crowd of people and followers of many different religions. We have invited many of them to speak with us for this event, and we will go on a virtual tour of Flushing, and hear the various different sites talk about their institutions.

We anticipate being joined by: The Flushing Free Synagogue, The Friends Meeting House, The Hindu Temple Society of North America, The Muslim Center of New York, and the Chinese Buddhist Association.
