Join Jay Prosser, author of Loving Strangers: A Camphorwood Chest, a Legacy, a Son Returns, for a presentation of his work.

Loving Strangers: A Camphorwood Chest, a Legacy, a Son Returns is a powerful story exploring themes of family and Jewish history. Jay will use a selection of ideas from the book to tell the real-life experiences of his family members.

Jay’s presentation will be followed by a ‘question & answer’ session.

Doors will open from 5:30 pm. The museum cafe will also be open for drinks.
