Jewish Siberia: Russia’s Promised Land
Hosted By: Qesher
Qesher will host a talk exploring Jewish life in Siberia over the last 400 years. The session will cover how Jews arrived in the region, their settlements, and activities, including a focus on Birobidjan, the Jewish Autonomous Region near the Chinese border. The presentation will highlight the unique aspects of Jewish life in Siberia, where street signs are still found in Yiddish, and the region’s extreme temperature variations.
