Devin Naar- Jewish Salonica Book Release

Jewish Studies professor, Devin Naar, will be speaking about his new book, Jewish Salonica at the UW Tower Auditorium and Hillel UW invites you to hear more about this Sephardic community.

The city of Salonica (Thessaloniki) was once home to the largest Sephardic Jewish community in the world. In this lecture, Prof. Naar will explore the fate of Salonica’s Jews and offer behind-the-scenes insight into how he uncovered the previously lost sources necessary to tell the story. Join the Stroum Center and the Sephardic Studies Program for this exciting book launch event.

Light kosher reception to follow lecture.

This event is co-sponsored by the University of Washington’s Department of History, the Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies, and the Center for West European Studies.
**Hillel UW is not a cosponsor of this event, but will be attending as guests of the book release.
