Check out the exhibit on Jewish life in Maine at the Maine State Museum, running through Oct. 21, 2019! This exhibit builds on a decade of research by Colby students and faculty as well as other community historians. To whet your appetite, and for those who cannot visit the museum in person, you can access online the exhibit booklet (with an essay by David Freidenreich) and three digital presentations by Colby students that appear within the gallery itself. (Colby students also designed the educational programs that accompany this exhibit.)
- Ling Ding ’18, “A Place of Inspiration: Maine Jewish Art”
- Sam Sessions ’20, “Jewish Homesteaders”
- Sarah Shoer ’18, “Franco-Jewish Relations in Lewiston-Auburn”
