Join us for a viewing of our new exhibit, Unpacking Exile, a meeting with curators, and a light reception.
After decades of collecting, preserving, curating, and providing access to its rich archives, the LBI is responding to the passing of the survivor generation with a podcast focused on storytelling. Each episode of Exile tells the story of someone forced to grapple with the loss of home, culture, language, security, or family due to Nazi persecution.
In this exhibition, we present eight of the twelve stories from Exile alongside a selection of the archival sources that preserve them.
