The Jewish Federation Connecting with Community presents "Bringing Heritage to Life in the Berkshires."  The Upper Housatonic Valley National Heritage Area (Housatonic Heritage) is a program that serves 29 communities in the Housatonic River watershed region.

Created by Congress, and funded through the National Park Service, it supports culture, history and natural resource organizations throughout Berkshire and Litchfield counties.

Dan Bolognani, Executive Director, has been working in our neighborhoods for over 15 years, supporting youth education, natural resource conservation, historical societies, and bringing creative programs to our downtowns.  Join us as we learn about regional initiatives that affect all of us.

This free program is part of the Federation’s Connecting With Community Series and will be followed by a kosher hot lunch. Lunch is a $2 suggested donation for adults over 60 years of age or $7 for all others. Advance reservations are required for lunch and can be made by calling (413) 442-2200 before 9 a.m. on the day of the program.
