The Jewish Hamilton Project

Remembering Jewish Hamilton, an oral history project.

The Jewish Hamilton Project features Jewish Hamiltonians reminiscing and reflecting on their experiences of living Jewish lives in Hamilton. The project focuses on areas of everyday life such as education, the Synagogues, the neighbourhood, occupations and anti-semitism. In the process, the view comes to appreciate the vibrancy of Jewish community life in Hamilton particularly during the 1930s through the 1960s. 

Produced by Wendy Schneider and Billy Shaffir.

From November 13th to January 8th, 2010.
