“Our Journey Home” was a photography exhibit that tracked various immigration patterns of Jews who left the former Soviet Union. The exhibit was a community event designed to raise awareness for the viewer with little or no knowledge about Jewish immigration from the former Soviet Union. The photographs were taken in collaboration with Felix Lipov from our various travels uncovering our roots. Lisa curated, organized and marketed the event – putting us in various NY publications.
The Gallery Opening Reception: Our Journey Home took place on Thursday, October 27, 2011 – 8:00 to 10:00 PM at The NYU Bronfman Center Gallery – 7 East 10th Street
