UKRAINE? Do you know your family's heritage...the place where your grandparents were from? Perhaps it is somewhere in eastern Europe like Russia or the Ukranine.   March 17th at 7 PM. Wiener Social Hall

The Ukraine Committee is planning a special event on Wednesday night, March 17th to teach us more about the Ukraine. Dr. Hillel Abramson, a noted authority on Ukrainian Jewish history, will be the guest speaker. He is the author of several books and scholarly articles on the Jewish community of Ukraine. Dr. Abramson recently took part in a Summit Meeting at Oxford University on Ukrainian Jewish History with 30 Professors. We've planned a great evening to meet and learn how Jews lived in the Ukraine and how our relatives came to America. Perhaps it will lead you down the path of discovery of your past. When another trip to the Ukraine is planned, perhaps you can find the street on which your family lived.

Ukranian refreshments will be served.
