Monday 14 November 2011
Mon 14 Nov to Mon 21 Nov. You are invited to join us on a mission to Cuba with the Jewish Theological Seminary. During this visit, we will meet with leaders of the Jewish community, learn about life on the island, bring with us humanitarian donations of medicine and clothing, attend services and join members of the Jewish community for dinner, and have the opportunity to see other places of interest. Jewish settlers in Cuba date back centuries-from the first "conversos" who reached Cuba in 1492, through Jews fleeing Brazil in the 17th century. However, persecuted by the Inquisition, Jews had to flee Cuba during the 17th and 18th centuries and were only able ro begin returning after independence from Spain was achieved in 1898. Travel with us as we learn about the Jewish community. 1109 Fifth Avenue, New York, 10128. Alex Wittenberg, 212-423-3271. Jewish Museum - [email][events]
