Catskills Borscht Belt Museum Talk

-

An In-Person and Zoom Program

You are invited to join us when Andrew Jacobs brings us a delightful and nostalgic presentation about the Borscht Belt Museum.  Andrew is president of the two-year old museum in Ellenville, NY dedicated to the history and cultural legacy of the Catskills resort era. This presentation is sure to bring back memories to all who remember fun-filled visits to the Catskills!

For more than 20 years, Andrew has been a New York Times reporter and was part of two Pulitzer Prize winning teams. He is also a documentary film maker who directed the award-winning Four Seasons Lodge about a group of Holocaust survivors who share a bungalow colony in the Catskill Mountains.

Andrew was born in Newark and grew up in South Orange.  He currently splits his time between Manhattan and Naponach, NY.
