Jewish Life in the Slate Valley
of New York and Vermont, 1840-present
When:
10 am - 4pm
Gallery Talk -1:30 pm
Where:
Slate Valley Museum
Granville, New York
Cost:
Free
Explore the reasons that Jewish immigrants from Poland, Germany, Lithuania, and
Russia came to the slate region and examine the outcomes for the immigrants and
their descendants in this major exhibit. Consulting scholar, Robert S. Schine,
Ph.D., Middlebury College, places the stories of local Jewish families in the
context of national and world history. The exhibit traces the themes of
culture, economics, and education beginning in the country of origin at the
time of immigration, shifting to the Jewish immigrants' new lives in the Slate
Valley, and following the paths of their descendents. The new exhibit
complements an existing comprehensive exhibit about immigrant slate quarry
workers from Wales, Ireland, Italy, Slovakia, and Poland, which was funded by a
major grant from the New York Council for the Humanities in 2003.
The exhibit, which runs through June 2007, is partially funded by the New York
Council for the Humanities, a state affiliate of the National Endowment for the
Humanities, and the Shepard Broad Foundation, Inc., in memory of long-time
Granville public servant Morris Rote-Rosen and his wife Sally Cherin, and his
parents, Abram Rote-Rosen and Rose Mevzos.
