Jewish Foodways in the Lowcountry South

  • Historic Savannah Foundation Headquarters (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

HSF is pleased to host a special lecture on “Jewish Foodways in the Lowcountry South” as part of the 2024 Lecture Series, “People, Stories, and Places that define Savannah.” This cultural discussion will feature Kugels & Collards authors Rachel Barnett and Lyssa Harvey as well as Congregation Mickve Israel’s Rabbi Robert Haas on Thursday, April 18 at the HSF headquarters, located at 321 E. York St. Attendees are invited to a wine reception at 5:30 p.m, with the lecture starting at 6 p.m.

The discussion will include Rabbi Haas addressing Savannah’s significant Jewish history, and authors Barnett and Harvey exploring the unique history and experience of Jewish foodways in the Lowcountry South.  

Barnett and Harvey’s book, Kugels & Collards, is a collection of recipes and essays from Jewish families who arrived in the South from 1791 to the present day. Published as a project of the Columbia Jewish Heritage Initiative and sponsored by the Jewish Historical Society of South Carolina and Historic Columbia, the book uses food as a lens to view the Jewish experience in the South and explores the merging of Southern and Jewish elements into the foodways that now define Lowcountry cuisine.

“We often focus on physical representations of history through buildings or monuments, but history can also be experienced through recipes that have been passed down for generations,” says Historic Savannah Foundation CEO and President Susan Adler.

 Historic Savannah Foundation’s 2024 Lecture Series is open to the public. Reservations are recommended, as space is limited. Attendance is free for Historic Savannah Foundation members and $15 for non-members.

Members may RSVP by emailing Kendall Graham kgraham@myhsf.org or calling 912-233-7787, ext. 109. Non-members may reserve their spot by clicking the button near the top of this page.

Arts & Oysters 2024

COASTAL HERITAGE SOCIETY HOSTS ANNUAL ART AND

OYSTERS EVENT – MAR. 21

SAVANNAH, GA – Jan. 23, 2024 – Coastal Heritage Society (CHS) will host their annual “Art and Oysters” event from 6-9 p.m. on Thursday, March 21 at Pin Point Heritage Museum, located at 9924 Pin Point Ave in Savannah. The former factory has been transformed into an educational center for visitors to learn about the Gullah/Geechee culture authentically and directly from residents who grew up in the small, close-knit community.

Guests spend an evening at Pin Point Heritage Museum with the region’s most popular artists, delicious food, and beautiful views of the Moon River. Art & Oysters shares elements of Gullah/Geechee culture through food, music, and art, while proceeds from the event support the Museum. The silent
art auction features 10-15 artists who build a unique narrative through their works about life on the coast and Gullah/Geechee culture. Tickets for this event are $75 for CHS members and $100 for nonmembers and sponsorship levels begin at $500.

“Pin Point is one of the last Gullah/Geechee communities still inhabited by descendants of the Freedman who founded it and their history is told through Pin Point Heritage Museum. Art & Oysters is vital to the museum’s future and this enticing fundraiser event is one that the community will not want to miss,” said Nora Lee, CEO of CHS.

Preregistration is required for this event. To register, please visit https://bit.ly/ArtOysters24. To inquire about sponsorship opportunities for this event, email development@chsgeorgia.org for more information. The mission of Coastal Heritage Society is to provide educational experiences for the public through the
preservation and presentation of the historic resources of coastal Georgia and adjacent regions. Coastal Heritage Society is a 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation founded in 1975 which operates six historic museums. For more information about CHS, please visit chsgeorgia.org
