May is Jewish American Heritage Month and we are delighted to see our charming ABC book, B is for Bagel in the βIβll Have What Sheβs Havingβ exhibition! @hmhou β‘οΈπ₯―π
βIβll Have What Sheβs Having: The Jewish Deli" explores how American Jews imported traditions, adapted culture, and built community through the experience of food. In addition to showing how Jewish deli forged an entirely new, quintessentially American cuisine by combining Central and Eastern European dishes with ingredients abundantly available in the United States, the exhibition traces the larger arc of the Jewish experience in the US during the twentieth century.
The exhibition is co-curated by Skirball curators Cate Thurston and Laura Mart, and Lara Rabinovitch @skirball_la.
"[B is for Bagel is a]...delightful, colorful, bagel-themed ABC book thatβs an ode to the round doughy delicacy beloved by American Jews (and anyone who has good taste in food)." β @Kvellercom
