Dear Members and Friends of the Polish-Jewish Heritage Foundation

The 25th Anniversary Holocaust Education Week in Toronto has already started.
We are proud to be part of it again.

The Polish-Jewish Heritage Foundation co-sponsors and co-organizes a very powerful event including screening of a multiple award-winning documentary The Lost Wooden Synagogues of Eastern Europe, which is based on 40-yeas of research, collecting rare photographs and building models of wooden synagogues from Poland and Eastern Europe by Mr. Albert Barry of Florida, who will personally address our audience.

Anybody interested in history, architecture or Jewish heritage will find this evening fascinating.

The attached poster includes further information or visit our website www.pjhftoronto.ca where you will also find the link to Mr. Barry's website.
