ABOUT THE EVENT
Phoenixville Public Library hosts a free virtual presentation, “From the Old World to the New: An Immigrant’s Story”, on Thursday, March 11 at 7:00 PM. Immerse yourself in the early 20th century as costumed history interpreter Jaan Troltenier enacts Rosie Ginzburg, a Jewish immigrant to America from Eastern Europe. Rosie will delight and educate you with her stories and pictures and maybe even teach you a song. She is brought to life through extensive research in European immigration, Eastern European music and customs, and Yiddish. Many of our forebears immigrated to the New World from the Old, so come experience what that was like. You may be reliving the history of your own family.
This event is free and open to the public and will take place online via Zoom. Registration is required at https://ccls.libcal.com/calendar/Phoenixville/rosie-ginzburg or by calling 610-933-3013 x132. Email mpinto@ccls.org for more information.
