The Toby and Herbert Stolzer Endowed Program

Jerusalem is the extraordinary city where some of the Western world's most enduring ideas were developed. 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.

PANEL:
Benjamin Balint, Fellow, Van Leer Institute
Father Columba Stewart, St. John’s University, MN
Bedross der Matossian, Department of History, University of Nebraska-Lincoln

Free and open to the public. RSVP by March 20 on our website.

Sponsor: The Allen and Joan Bildner Center for the Study of Jewish Life, Rutgers-New Brunswick Libraries
