Our first Coffee & Conversation will be with award-winning author of "Exile Music," Jennifer Steil. In her historical novel, "Exile Music," Steil offers a glimpse of a little-known Jewish diaspora and portion of Holocaust history. While living in La Paz, Bolivia from 2012-2016, she learned there were between 10,000 and 20,000 Jewish refugees in Bolivia during the period of World War II, many of whom were musicians, artists, and performers.
Lizzie Gelernter Westin, a member of 3GDC and grandchild of refugees and survivors, grew up in Bolivia and some of the stories that Lizzie's father told Jennifer found their way into "Exile Music," including Nazi encounters. "Exile Music" is a riveting and well researched novel exploring so many interesting themes that we are excited to discuss with both Jennifer and Lizzie.

Starting on June 9th
3GDC is proud to invite all 3G's in the DC area to be a part of our newest venture,
3GDC Culture Connect.
3GDC Culture Connect is a bi-monthly group for 3G's to discuss a variety of topics from books and films to art and music. Anyone will be able to host a topic that is related to our 3G experience, whether directly or indirectly. Most of all, 3GDC Culture Connect will be another way for us to get to know our 3G community, build our relationships with each other, and share in our experiences as 3G's.
