Join us for a special premiere showing of the film "The Catskills" - a unique look at this storied vacation land that so many people recall fondly. With a trove of lost-and-found archival footage and a cast of characters endowed with the gift of gab, The "Catskills" journeys into the celebrated mountain getaway north of New York City that served as refuge for Jewish immigrants fleeing poverty as well as a lavish playground for affluent Jewish families. As bungalow colony proprietors, guests, waiters, comedians, hoteliers, and beauticians share colorful tales of Catskill farms, boarding houses, and luxury resorts, they paint a picture of vibrant American Jewish life and culture in the 20th century.
Deli sandwiches from Feldman's Deli will be served.
