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:German Patriots: Jewish Germans During WWI
DESCRIPTION:Germany entered World War I on August 1\, 1914 when the country declared war on Russia. 11 million German soldiers were mobilized\, 100\,000 of whom were Jewish. A number of these Jewish soldiers were honored for their service with the Iron Cross. In addition\, many German Jews supported the war effort at home along with their neighbors. This service and dedication were soon disregarded\, but World War I efforts are an essential part of the German Jewish story. Showcasing artifacts from the Museum’s collection\, we will explore these efforts and experiences with scholars Dr. Michael Geheran\, Dr. Jason Crouthamel\, Dr. Julia B. Köhne\, and Dr. Tim Grady\, moderator Ralph Blumenthal\, and the Museum’s Curatorial Research Assistant Rebecca Frank.

SUMMARY:Dream of the Red Chamber with Bright Sheng and David Henry Hwang
DESCRIPTION:Dream of the Red Chamber (紅樓夢)\, one of China’s four great classic novels\, tells the story of the rise and decline a wealthy imperial Chinese family\, and by extension\, the rise and decline of the Qing dynasty itself. The novel was adapted as an English-language Opera composed by Bright Sheng with libretto by Sheng and David Henry Hwang\, which premiered at the San Francisco Opera in 2016. On April 21\, join composer Bright Sheng and Tony Award winner David Henry Hwang to explore the world of their Dream of the Red Chamber which returns to the San Francisco Opera House this June. Sheng and Hwang\, in conversation with Ann Chih Lin\, Director of the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies at the University of Michigan\, will share what it takes to adapt this rich and complex world to a different medium\, and why this story still resonates with readers and viewers alike more than two centuries after it was first written.
