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:“Nazis Of Copley Square” Book Talk
DESCRIPTION:In 1939\, the Christian Front was formed in response to a call by Father Charles Edward Coughlin to oppose the Popular Front\, a communist organization. The members of the Christian Front were American Catholics who supported a pro-Nazi agenda. In 1940\, the FBI alleged that members of the group were trying to install what they called a “temporary dictatorship” to end the influence of Jews and Communists\, who they saw as the same\, in the United States. Charles Gallagher‘s new book Nazis of Copley Square: The Forgotten Story of the Christian Front chronicles the history of the front and how it was ultimately taken down. Join the Museum for a discussion about the book between Gallagher and David Kertzer\, Pulitzer Prize-winning author and Paul Dupee Professor of Social Science at Brown University.

SUMMARY:NFTs: Welcome to the Metaverse
DESCRIPTION:Leaders in the NFT (non-fungible token) market will discuss the current explosion and future opportunities within this crypto segment. NFTs are a family of crypto assets that hold ownership of unique data linked to a blockchain (e.g. Ethereum). They are typically packaged as digital collectibles\, works of art\, music\, video game items\, real estate of virtual reality platforms\, and concert tickets. With the NFT market exceeding $27 billion\, our panelists will discuss those factors that separate this highly profitable digital market from the rest. The panel discussion will be moderated by Michael Maloney\, Adjunct Professor at Fordham Law and Founder of Royale. Panel discussion will be followed by audience Q&A.

SUMMARY:Thou Shalt Not Stand Idly By: How One Woman Confronted The Greatest Humanitarian Crisis Of Our Time
DESCRIPTION:Join ADL NY/NJ\, the Museum of Jewish Heritage\, the New York Board of Rabbis\, and 92Y for a conversation with Dr. Georgette Bennett\, whose new book\, Thou Shalt Not Stand Idly By\, tells the story of her efforts to get aid to Syrians during their Civil War. The massive $175 million humanitarian effort that she sparked was largely carried out through unprecedented partnerships between Syrians and Israelis. The conversation will reveal a fascinating story about the impact one person can have and why Bennett was recently cited in Forbes’ first “50 Over 50” Impact list.
