Exposition Shalom Quebec

Welcome to the virtual exhibit “Same cloth, different threads: the Jews of Quebec City, 1608-2008.” Through images, videos and written stories, it brings people, places and events from the community’s past to life. The exhibit also provides a wealth of historical documentation such as bibliographies and data sheets for visitors wanting more in-depth information. This virtual online exhibit complements the three-dimensional exhibit of the same name installed in Quebec City’s central train station from May to September 28th, 2008.
