The Ontario Jewish Archives is partnering with the Toronto District School Board’s Jewish and Italian Heritage Committees to commemorate the 90th anniversary of the Christie Pits Riot for Jewish and Italian heritage months. At the centre of this exciting program is a live onsite theatrical performance by Hogtown Productions, created by Sam Rosenthal and Drew Carnwath with music by Measha Brueggergosman. The program is designed for grades 8 & 10.
