Birthright Israel is offering a musical tour of Israel. The free trip to Israel for 18-26 year-olds who have never been on a peer trip has added a “Blues for Peace” program to its tours. The summer program, run by IsraelExperts, a tour group in Israel, will feature a workshop on music and tolerance with Jewish and Arab musicians, an evening of blues and Ethiopian music and a visit to the Israeli army radio station.
