Chicago Jewish History covers people, places, and events.
The Chicago Jewish Historical Society documents and presents the history of the Jewish community in the Chicago area. Founded in 1977, it covers the community's story from the 1840s to the present. Its work includes a quarterly publication, Chicago Jewish History, with issues available in a digital archive. Programs are held live and virtually, featuring presentations by writers, historians, community leaders, and other experts. The Society also offers tours of landmarks and sites connected to Chicago Jewish history. Its oral history library contains recordings of local Jewish people recounting their lives and experiences in the city, with the collection being digitized for public access. Outreach to younger generations is another part of its work. The Society is based in Chicago.
