Andersen Library to celebrate the new exhibit Symbolic Significance: Tracing the History of Jewish High Holidays and the First Day of School. Curated by Kate Dietrick\, Archivist for the Upper Midwest Jewish Archives\, this will be an opportunity for an engaging conversation around the topics and documents brought to light. The program will include a panel conversation with Natan Paradise\, Director of the Center for Jewish Studies; Riv-Ellen Prell Emeritus Professor\, University of Minnesota; Benjie Kaplan\, Director\, Hillel; and Steve Hunegs\, Director\, Jewish Community Relations Council. \nThe event will be held in person at Elmer L. Andersen Library with heavy appetizers. Please RSVP by Sept. 1. \nRegister for Symbolic Significance\nProgram\n\n5-6 p.m. — Exhibit viewing/Reception\n6-7 p.m. — Program\n7-7:30 p.m. — Exhibit viewing & curator Q&A in the gallery\n\n\nAbout Symbolic Significance\nThe first day of school holds a certain kind of magic — the anticipation\, the fresh beginning\, the promise. It is a day filled with symbolic significance for students from kindergarten to college. In Minnesota\, this first day of school occurs in September and has at times conflicted with the Jewish high holidays\, forcing students\, staff\, and faculty to choose between their religious practice and the symbolic start of their education. \nOver the past decade\, more school districts have begun to recognize non-Christian faith holidays as they plan their academic calendars. These changes and the shifting respect for other religions and cultures didn’t happen overnight\, but rather have played out over a decades-long struggle for minority visibility and understanding. \nThis exhibit examines the history of Jewish community members working with local school districts to make space for Jewish Minnesotans to practice their religion without conflict. The exhibit is open Sept. 5\, 2023 through Jan. 30\, 2024 at Elmer L. Andersen Library\, third floor. \nSponsored by the Upper Midwest Jewish Archives and co-sponsored by the Center for Jewish Studies\, Minnesota Hillel\, and the Jewish Community Relations Council of Minnesota and the Dakotas.

Nick will travel from England to share the story of his father\, Sir Nicholas George Winton\, a British humanitarian credited with organizing a Kindertransport of 669 mostly Jewish children from Czechoslovakia on the eve of World War II. \nWhat made 29-year-old Nicholas give up his skiing holiday to rescue these children from the Nazis and how did he do it? Winton’s son Nick will tell his father’s inspiring story about the life-changing events that transformed the destiny of so many. \nThis event is free to attend\, but registration is required. \nSpecial Kristallnacht Commemoration with Nick Winton\nWednesday\, Nov. 9 / 7:00 PM / Beth El Synagogue\n\nSOLD OUT – ATTEND VIA LIVESTREAM\n\nNick will also speak in Williston\, North Dakota\, Nov. 6-7 to high school students\, teachers\, and community members.\n  \n \nNick Winton grew up learning about ethics\, values\, and the importance of making a contribution to the community in which you live.  Over many conversations during his childhood\, Nick was encouraged to hear the facts and to then make up his own mind rather than being (mis)guided by the opinion of others.  Nick himself has wide experience of the roller-coaster of life and speaks with candor about his father\, living with tragedy and the importance of keeping focused on what is important in life. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n\n  \n \nThis event is co-sponsored by The Jewish Community Relations Council of Minnesota & the Dakotas and Beth El Synagogue.  We are proud to have Nick Winton speak to our community in association with last year’s Kindertransport exhibit.
