SUMMARY:Boris Lurie: Nothing To Do But To Try
DESCRIPTION:Boris Lurie: Nothing To Do But To Try is a first-of-its-kind exhibition on the 20th-century artist and Holocaust survivor Boris Lurie. Centered around his earliest work\, the so-called War Series\, as well as never-before-exhibited objects and ephemera from Lurie’s personal archive\, the exhibition presents a portrait of an artist reckoning with devastating trauma\, haunting memories\, and an elusive\, lifelong quest for freedom. In drawing together artistic practice and historical chronicle\, Boris Lurie: Nothing To Do But To Try is fertile new territory for the Museum of Jewish Heritage\, offering a survivor’s searing visual testimony within a significant art historical context. The Museum is open Wednesday\, Thursday\, and Sunday from 11 AM – 7 PM ET through October 17. The Museum is closed on Jewish holidays and on Thanksgiving. As of October 18\, the Museum will be open Sunday and Wednesday: 10 AM to 5 PM; Thursday\, 10 AM to 8 PM; and Friday\, 10 AM to 3 PM.

Her mother\, originally from Greece\, fought the Nazis as a member of the resistance until she was captured and sent to Auschwitz.

SUMMARY:Reevaluating Our French Allies
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture\, Desmarais will discuss recent discoveries about the Count de Rochambeau’s army that counter popular assumptions—focusing primarily on the recently published diary of the Count de Lauberdière\, which includes details that are not covered in any other French diaries. Serving as an aide-de-camp on General Rochambeau’s staff\, the young and well-educated Lauberdière provided a unique perspective of the war\, including descriptions of the French army’s camp in Newport\, the long march to Yorktown\, the siege and capture\, and a fascinating examination of the people and their distinctive colonial culture. This lecture will take place via Zoom.

SUMMARY:RBG’s Brave And Brilliant Jewish Women
DESCRIPTION:During the last year of her life\, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg sat down with Moment editor-in-chief Nadine Epstein to discuss the Jewish women she found inspiring. In Epstein’s new intergenerational book RBG’s Brave and Brilliant Women: 33 Jewish Women to Inspire Everyone\, she profiles the women Ginsburg identified and reflects on each of their stories. The trailblazers in the book\, like Ginsburg herself\, each fought to forge a better world rather than accepting it as it was.
