2025 Lecture Flyers (1080 x 1350 px)-8.png

Join us and our co-sponsor Temple Isaiah at the Setauket Neighborhood House for a special lecture by historian and author Brad Kolodny on

The Jews of Long Island: 1705–1918.

 

Based on six years of research, Kolodny shares the little-known story of how Jewish communities were established and grew across Long Island—from Great Neck to Greenport and Cedarhurst to Sag Harbor. Through rare photos, census records, and personal histories, he highlights the lives of Jewish peddlers, farmers, merchants, and industrialists who laid the foundation for one of the largest Jewish communities in the U.S.

 

Brad Kolodny is president of the Jewish Historical Society of Long Island and has worked for The New York Times since 1996. He has photographed more than 600 synagogues in 14 countries and is the author of Seeking Sanctuary and The Jews of Long Island, published by SUNY Press.

 

A Q&A will follow the presentation!
