SBHEC Cape Verdean Museum Trip

Posted

Join the Sandra Bornstein Holocaust Education Center for a special community visit to the Cape Verdean Museum in Pawtucket, the first museum in the world dedicated to preserving and celebrating Cape Verdean history and culture.

Our visit will highlight the Museum’s Cape Verdean Jewish Heritage Permanent Exhibit, offering an opportunity to explore a lesser-known history connecting Cape Verdean and Jewish experiences. Through the Museum’s collections, participants will encounter the art, artifacts, photographs, documents, and stories that preserve Cape Verdean history and illuminate the experiences of generations of Cape Verdean people.

The evening will also provide an opportunity to learn more broadly about Cape Verdean history and culture, including migration, community life, cultural traditions, and the deep roots of Cape Verdean Americans in Rhode Island.
