Stories from the JHSSA oral history project, presented by Judy Shapiro, project coordinator
We invite you to come to hear some of the compelling and delightful stories gathered in JHSSA’s on-going Oral History Project. We will share a few vignettes of the lived experiences of the machers, mavens and menschen who make our Calgary Jewish community what it is today. Judy will also report on the progress of this important project which aims to preserve the stories of our past.
We will once again present certificates in recognition of those in our community who have celebrated their 80th birthday within the past year. Please contact our office if you are interested on serving on the JHSSA board or if you know of someone who has turned 80 this year.
Our Oral History Project was made possible by a grant from the Alberta Historical Resources Foundation’s Heritage Preservation Program.
