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.

SUMMARY:Transforming Moments: A Conversation With Diane Von Furstenberg
DESCRIPTION:Before she was an international fashion icon and a member of the TIME 100\, Diane von Furstenberg was a young girl growing up with parents who had just survived the Holocaust. Her father\, originally from Moldova\, escaped the Nazis in Switzerland. Her mother\, originally from Greece\, fought the Nazis as a member of the resistance until she was captured and sent to Auschwitz. Join the Museum for a conversation with von Furstenberg about her identity as the daughter of survivors and how it has informed her remarkable career at the helm of one of the world’s most recognizable brands. She will be in conversation with Dr. Eva Fogelman\, renowned psychologist and author of the Pulitzer Prize-nominated book Conscience and Courage: Rescuers of Jews During the Holocaust.

SUMMARY:Virtual Walking Tour: Revisiting Budapest
DESCRIPTION:Through the eyes and camera of our guide Adam\, explore off-the-beaten path parts of the Jewish quarter of Pest\, one of the most interesting parts of Budapest’s city center. Learn the in-depth stories of the historical area including Stolpersteine\, the former children’s republic of Gaudiopolis\, and some micro-stories from everyday life of middle-class Jewish families. We will also have special access to the Ghetto Wall Memorial\, where we will see the last remaining section of the WWII ghetto’s wall hiding in the courtyard of an abandoned residential building. Only licensed guides have access\, and no groups are permitted in this hidden courtyard.

SUMMARY:Stories Survive: Solomon Kofinas
DESCRIPTION:More than 80% of Greek Jews were murdered during the Holocaust. Among them were the father\, sister\, mother\, and baby brother of Solomon Kofinas\, a survivor from Athens and a leader of Kehilah Kedosha Janina (KKJ)\, New York’s Greek synagogue. Kofinas was born in 1936 in Athens. After the Nazi invasion of Greece in 1941\, Kofinas and his older brother fled to the outskirts of the city\, where they hid with the help of Greek Orthodox Christians and later with distant family members. They never saw their immediate family again. In 1955\, Kofinas emigrated to New York\, where he married another Holocaust survivor and started a family of his own. Now a grandfather and great-grandfather\, he has served as a gabbai and lay leader at KKJ for more than 50 years. Join the Museum and KKJ for a program with Kofinas exploring his story of loss\, survival\, and rescue in Greece.
