Creating POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews
9500 Gilman Drive #0436, San Diego, 92093
Cost: Free
Please join the UC San Diego Jewish Studies Program and UC San Diego Library for a lecture by Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett exploring the creation of POLIN Museum and its multimedia narrative exhibition "Journey of a 1,000 Years," and its potential to be an agent of transformation. Kirshenblatt-Gimblett's passion for history has led her to play a large part in piecing together the scattered thousand-year history of the Polish Jews. The event takes place on Wednesday, April 11, 2018 from 5:30-7 p.m. in Atkinson Hall Auditorium on the UC San Diego campus. A light reception will precede the talk at 4:30 p.m. This event is free and open to the public.
