(Jewish Arts and Culture Ireland (JACI) are a branch of the Jewish Representative Council of Ireland with the aim of fostering and supporting the arts relating to Jewish culture and heritage in Ireland)
Steven Jaffe spoke about the process of researching and creating a Jewish heritage trail, and the history of Jewish culture and heritage in Belfast as part of the JACI programme.
Transition Year students will work with their teachers in the creation of their own Dublin Jewish Heritage walking tour inspired by the work of Steven Jaffe. We look forward to this exciting local history project and the opportunity to learn about the history, culture and impact of the Jewish community in Dublin in the Spring term.
