Film Screening: The Levys of Monticello
June 25, 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
Welcome summer! Welcome HCRJ in-person film screenings! On Sunday, June 25th at 2pm, come to Naman Hall to watch the film, The Levys of Monticello!
When Thomas Jefferson died in 1826, he left behind a mountain of personal debt, which forced his heirs to sell his beloved Monticello home and all of its possessions. The Levys of Monticello is a documentary film that tells the little-known story of the Levy family, which owned and carefully preserved Monticello for nearly a century – far longer than Jefferson or his descendants. The remarkable story of the Levy family also intersects with the rise of antisemitism that runs throughout the course of American history.
Refreshments are sponsored by The Village of Tanglewood.
