Jerusalem: City of the Book
The Toby and Herbert Stolzer Endowed Program
Join us on October 25 at 2:00 p.m. for a discussion of the literary treasures of Jerusalem. A distinguished panel will tell the story of the ancient city, and of its people of diverse faiths and cultures, through forays into its most inaccessible holdings: hidden Jewish archives, rare manuscripts in Christian and Islamic libraries, and the riches of its Armenian heritage. Advance registration is required.
