American Sephardi Digital Collection

The American Sephardi section, a growing digital archive together with the physical exhibition Sephardic Jews and the Making of American Independence, marks 250 years of Sephardic Jewish contribution to American history. As part of the Sephardi Spaces project, it brings together biographies, educational resources, audio materials, and public programming for research, teaching, and community engagement.
