Super interesting free event: "The Jewish community in Izmir dates back to ancient times, but the mass Sephardi migration from Spain in the late 15th century strengthened its presence. Settling in Izmir's port area in the 16th century, Jews formed a thriving community, influencing religion and culture in the 17th and 18th centuries. They contributed significantly to Izmir's development, leaving behind cultural heritage, some of which still exist today. The Izmir Jewish Cultural Heritage Project, initiated in 2010, aims to preserve this legacy. This meeting will discuss the project's goals and achievements in safeguarding Izmir's Jewish heritage." https://www.facebook.com/events/630541713232502
