The Borscht Belt: Revisiting the Remains of America's Jewish Vacationland

The Borscht Belt: Revisiting the Remains of America’s Jewish Vacationland presents Marisa Scheinfeld’s large-scale photographs of abandoned sites where Borscht Belt resorts and bungalow colonies once boomed in the Catskill Mountain region of upstate New York. This traveling exhibition assembles images Scheinfeld has shot inside and outside former structures that once buzzed with life as summer havens for generations of East Coast American Jews and New Yorkers.
