Presentation: A History of Jewish People in Scarsdale
Monday, April 6 | 6:45 PM

A History of Jewish People in Scarsdale traces the community's Jewish history from a marginal presence with limited civic participation to full integration within Scarsdale's social and civic life. Drawing on original research and incorporating broader historical context, Village Historian and Scarsdale Historical Society Vice President Jordan Copeland examines why Scarsdale attracted a significant Jewish population, how Scarsdale's Jewish settlement differed from neighboring communities, and the obstacles Jewish residents faced along the way, offering a nuanced account of both progress and challenge.

There will be two ways to attend:

  • In Person: Scott Room, Scarsdale Public Library

  • Live Virtual: Zoom link will be emailed before the event

This presentation is co-sponsored by the Scarsdale Public Library.
