Sunday Brunch: “From Kaluszyn to Paris and Beyond – Jewish Communities in Motion and Memory”
Sunday Brunch: “From Kaluszyn to Paris and Beyond – Jewish Communities in Motion and Memory”
This talk will share new research on the migration of Jews from Kaluszyn to Paris, in the early twentieth century and their wartime experiences. A branch of Kimble’s own family made this migration and in-depth research allows her to contextualize stories of community solidarity during the Nazi occupation, and bittersweet memorial during the Liberation and postwar period. Join us for a reflection on being Jewish in Paris between 1920 and 1950. This hybrid event will take place in the Jewish Studies Center, Arnold Hall (Room 100) and via Zoom. Brunch will be served beginning at 9:00 AM.

“Where were the Women? A History of Gendered Synagogue Space” – An illustrated lecture by Samuel D. Gruber
“Where were the Women? A History of Gendered Synagogue Space” – An illustrated lecture by Samuel D. Gruber
In this talk Dr. Samuel Gruber presents an overview of the role of women in Jewish worship space but especially focuses on the types of physical spaces allowed to women in American synagogue architecture from the 18th century until today. Dr. Gruber will present historical material, some of which derives from the William Rosenthal Collection at the College of Charleston, and much of which comes from his own continuing investigation of synagogue buildings throughout the world.
