     David Fasman

    Judaica Provenance: Historical Gold and Genealogical Treasures

    Topic: Jews truly are, “The People of the Book.” From original incunabula and 16th century works, to prolific publishing in the Pale of Settlement, and the most extensive looting of books in the history of humankind—books have followed Jews everywhere, and to some extent, we have followed them. In this talk, Fasman will review the genealogical potential that exists in antiquarian Judaica and the reasons it can be so powerful. Additionally, Fasman will discuss the history of books orphaned by the Nazis, and the subsequent destruction of genealogical records those books held.

    Bio: David Fasman is the Curator of the Beck Archives of Rocky Mountain Jewish History and Assistant Professor at the University of Denver Libraries. His research focuses on Nazi-Looted Judaica and Hebraica, the censorship of Jewish books during the Pale of Settlement, and general provenance of antiquarian Judaica. David has spoken at several conferences, multiple classes, and several groups on these topics.


    Dr. Joshua Furman

    “The Other Ellis Island:  Jewish Immigration Through Galveston, Texas.” 

    Topic:  Between 1907 and 1914, nearly 10,000 Eastern European Jews entered the United States through the port at Galveston, Texas rather than through Ellis Island.  This presentation will discuss the history of the Galveston Movement, its successes and failures, and will feature a rare primary source document:  a 1907 recruitment pamphlet, translated from Yiddish, that was distributed to encourage Jews to come to Texas and other states beyond the East Coast.

    Bio:  Dr. Joshua Furman is the Jeanne Abrams Endowed Director of the Rocky Mountain Jewish Historical Society and affiliate faculty of the Center for Judaic Studies at DU.  Prior to coming to Denver in January 2024, he worked at Rice University in Houston from 2015 to 2023, where he served as the Associate Director of the Program in Jewish Studies and the founder and first curator of the Joan and Stanford Alexander South Texas Jewish Archives. He has received grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Council on Library and Information Resources, the Southern Jewish Historical Society, the Texas Jewish Historical Society, and several foundations.

    The Six Million Project:  

    Combining Genealogy, Art and the Holocaust 




    Speaker Liora Blum

    Creator of the Six Million Project 


    Sunday January 19 2025

    Program 10 AM to 12 PM Mountain Time

    9:30 AM to 10 AM Schmear, Schmooze, and Share

    On ZOOM 




            Genealogy

    In my genealogical research, I uncovered records of my father-in-law's time in the Dachau camp. This was significant because he wasn’t aware that he had been there. It was an emotional revelation, especially since he is still alive. Another deeply moving discovery was finding the last recorded place of my grandfather, Jenö Glazer, who arrived at Natzweiler in December 1944—a fact none of our family had known before. These moments have added new dimensions to our family history. 


    I am the family’s go-to person for crafting intricate, beautifully designed family trees that preserve not only our stories but also the expansive connections across generations. On my mother’s side, I have already played a key role in inspiring two international family reunions that united 60 relatives from Australia, the USA, the UK, Israel, and South Africa, together with their children and grandchildren, first in Cape Town and last summer in Israel. Beginning during Covid, the family held weekly Zoom calls, rediscovering distant cousins across continents, family branches, and generations.


    Brief description of the Six Million Project

    The Six Million Project is a community-based art initiative led by Liora Blum, designed to honor the memory of the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust. The project involves creating 100 works of art, each made up of tiny painted rectangles, symbolizing every Jewish life lost. Volunteers are invited to contribute to this large-scale effort, with the aim of raising awareness about the destructive impact of antisemitism. Ultimately, the project envisions displaying all 100 paintings together in a museum space to evoke a powerful visual representation of memory and loss.

    For more information, visit: www.sixmillionproject.org and sign up for the newsletter to receive updates of the project.


    Bio

    Liora Blum is an independent graphic designer and artist with over 30 years of experience, specializing in book design and print-related projects. She is the creator of the Six Million Project, a community-based initiative aimed at raising awareness of the deadly effects of antisemitism by creating 100 paintings made up of six million tiny rectangles, symbolizing the Jewish victims of the Holocaust. As a second-generation Holocaust survivor, Liora is passionate about preserving Jewish history and memory. In addition to her artistic endeavors, she has also conducted extensive genealogical research into her own family history, which she will be discussing at this event. Based in Raanana, Israel, Liora also teaches English as a second language and continues to work with clients in high-tech industries.
