How traditions, values, and dreams created one of the most diverse Jewish communities in America.
"In the Land of Rain & Salmon" Jewish Voices of the Northwest: 1880-1920
June 2nd, 2 PM at Langston Hughes Performing Arts Institute come see an original theatre production by the WSJHS and Book-It Repertory Theatre. Reception to follow. Music preformed by the Klez Katz.
Imagine hearing your grandfather’s voice for the first time in 30 years telling you what it was like to take a boat from the old country without speaking a word of English or having more than 25 cents to his name. How about hearing your aunt describe baking biscochos or making matzo ball soup, just like her mother did? You can experience these moving moments during a live performance that will take you into the lives of early Jewish pioneers in the state of Washington.
