SUMMARY:Jewish Ireland
DESCRIPTION:NO PASSPORT REQUIRED!\nFor Sunday programs\, we will join as a 
 community and stream the&nbsp\;presentation together at The Meeting House.
  Refreshments will be served.\n\nThe Irish-Jewish community was a small bu
 t influential part of Irish society from the moment they first set foot in
  the medieval capital of Dublin in 1171 to the modern day. After over 800 
 years of permanent residence the Irish-Jews have left behind a rich histor
 y and culture that will be explored in this presentation centered on the s
 tory of the city's former Jewish quarter known locally as "Little Jerusale
 m"\n\nJoin us to learn who were the first Jews known to have arrived in th
 is corner of the British Isles and who are the ones who remain today. Disc
 over the Jewish figures involved in Ireland's independence and the Irish-J
 ewish connection to the founding of Israel. Hear the tragic story of Ettie
  Steinberg\, the only Irish citizen victim of the Holocaust\, and speculat
 e about who was the inspiration for the Jew Leopold Bloom\, the main chara
 cter of James Joyce's masterpiece\, "Ulysses".\n\nAlexander Vard was born 
 into a once prominent furrier family now more well known as artists and ac
 ademics. After 5 years studying History in Trinity College Dublin and the 
 University of Edinburgh and many years traversing the globe\, he settled i
 n his hometown of Dublin to found a walking tour company focusing on the h
 istory of Dublin's once bustling Jewish quarter\, known locally as "Little
  Jerusalem".\n\nPlease register in advance\n\n&nbsp\;\n\n&nbsp\;
