The event will include a speaking program and audience Q&A starting at 2:30 p.m. featuring Ellen Smith, renowned historian and editor of “The Jews of Boston,” and Judith Monachina, director of the Housatonic Heritage Oral History Center at Berkshire Community College and “Jewish Neighborhood Voices” humanities advisor.
