Re: [Cz-L] Czernowitz -- panel discussion, new film

Dear Renee, thanks for letting everyone know. It was great to see you and so many people interested in Czernowitz.
The 265 seats in the hall were sold out and there was a small overflow crowd in another room!
 The event was taped and I have asked the Center if they would videostream it on their website.
I will let you all know when it is available.

best, to all, Marianne
