Online Jewish Travel Club
Jewish History, Wherever the Story Takes Us.
Live online lectures and recorded journeys through Jewish communities, art, museums, and history - with Evgenia (Jane) Kempinski, your Jewish heritage guide.
Monthly on Zoom.
Join me for a 6-part live lecture series exploring the heart of Jewish Ukraine, from the big cities to the small shtetls of our grandparents. Together, we will uncover the everyday life, rich culture, and the stories of the places our ancestors called home.
Whether you know the exact name of your family's town or just have a few old memories, this is a journey we will take together.
The program begins Monday, November 16 with Series 1: Kyiv & Odessa.
Each talk is 60 minutes + time for Q&A · Zoom · Recording included
Dear Jane, you did an amazing job yesterday!!! It was very very interesting, even after having been to the Hermitage on two different tours. Not only did you show us the beauty that is the Hermitage, you gave a very good insight in the process of restoration. As a volunteer at the Israel Museum I have had the privilege to attend lectures on the subject, and I have to compliment you on a job very well done!
Thank you for organizing this wonderful experience. Jane was fantastic and shared such specific and educational information for each piece of art which made it very meaningful for me. I very much look forward to further lectures with her. This virtual tour had that extraordinary visual benefit that no people were present to interrupt the beauty of each room we entered. It was fantastic.
