Crafting a Memory; Preserving a Memory

One of the public things that people leave behind after they die are epitaphs and final disposition markers.

These texts are curated presentations of a life lived and represent what people think of their life’s achievements and how they want to be remembered by others. Join us as we think about this question and craft our own presentations, framed by the larger question of: what remains of this text and these tombstones after 100+ years?

Please note that there are 2 parts to this event:

1.) tour of the Spanish and Portuguese cemetery on 21st St west of 6th Ave, and

2.) a workshop in American Sephardi Federation at The Center for Jewish History.

The event will begin at 4:30 at the 21st St. Cemetery.
