DESCRIPTION:LECTURE\nShanghai’s Jews: Art, Architecture and Survival\n\nFrom the 
 middle of the nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth, Shanghai 
 was transformed into a multi-cultural, international city. Historian Nancy 
 Berliner explores how three waves of Jewish immigrants – from the Middle 
 East, Russia and Germany – discovered in this port city both a uniquely 
 hospitable environment for Jewish cultural and architectural creativity and 
 an opportunity to create new community.\n\nNancy Berliner is curator of 
 Chinese art at the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts, has 
 lectured at Harvard University, Dartmouth College, the Asia Society of 
 Houston, and the China Institute and is the author of Yin Yu Tang: The 
 Architecture and Daily Life of a Chinese House, Beyond the Screen: Chinese 
 Furniture of the 16th and 17th Century, and Chinese Folk 
 Art.\n\nCo-sponsored by the Asian Art Museum, which will present the 
 exhibition Shanghai, beginning on February 12. Also presented in 
 collaboration with the Holocaust Center of Northern California and the 
 American Jewish Committee’s San Francisco office, the lead sponsor for 
 the exhibition Jews in Modern China, opening February 24 at the Presidio 
 Officer’s Club.\n\nFor more information please email info@thecjm.org, 
 call 415.655.7800, or visit thecjm.org.\n\nFREE with regular admission. 
 \nAdmission is $5 after 5 PM.\n\n
