Question. Will women be allowed to enter without wearing a hijab? Just wondering about how “tolerant” of other cultures the new community center will be.

It’s normal for women to cover their hair when they enter a mosque as a sign of respect. It’s no different than non-Jewish men wearing a yarmulke when they attend a synagogue.
This isn’t going to be a mosque in any case.
