SUMMARY:City of Łódź Research Area Town Hall Meeting
DESCRIPTION:If you are interested in the City of Łódź\, Poland or it’s surrounding towns\, you are cordially invited to join us for a City of Łódź Town Hall Meeting\, on Sunday\, May 17\, 2026 from 12 pm Eastern for 90 minutes. You must have an active JRI-Poland (free) user account to attend\, but for this particular session\, you do not need to be a paying JRI-Poland member. \nLed by our City of Łódź Research Area Coordinator\, Joe Ross\, this session will be a briefing on the current status of JRI-Poland’s City of Łódź projects and a discussion about potential upcoming projects. Like a traditional “town hall meeting”\, this session aims to give Łódź researchers the opportunity to weigh in and comment on their (your) Łódź research interests. \nAs the fourth largest Polish city in Poland today\, Łódź continues to play its historically important role as an industrial area and has a colorful Jewish and econonimic history. Many of us understand the history of Polish industrialization through the lens of Israel Joshua Singer’s classic “The Brothers Ashkenazi” which focuses on the building of industry in Łódź from the late 19th century through the end of World War 1 when the Jewish community of Łódź boomed. \nCome join us to learn more about this fascinating and important city and the surviving traces of the rich Jewish heritage there. \nImage Attribution:  This image was found in the Wikipedia and is in the public domain.
