Vermont Eats has partnered with The Lost Mural Project for “Vermont Eats: From Eastern Europe to Burlington,” part of our fundraising series that focuses on the food and communities that make up Vermont’s diverse history and story.

Join us as we use one Lost Mural, one Copper Ark, one cookbook, and one moment in time to celebrate the culture that Eastern European immigrants brought to Burlington at the turn of the twentieth century. From 1880 to 1930, a thriving Jewish community grew up in Burlington, centered around three synagogues built in Burlington’s Old North End neighborhood, known as “Burlington’s Little Jerusalem.” The Lost Mural Project, Ohavi Zedek Synagogue, and Vermont Historical Society together present this special night of food, culture, and learning.

Featured Speaker: Samuel D. Gruber
