Tapestry of Spirit
The journey of one woman’s ambitious project

Egg Cream
This is a sweet look at the memory, history, and
enduring meaning of a beloved, chocolate soda
drink, born in Jewish immigrant neighborhoods
at the turn of 20th Century. Neither egg nor
cream, it was a product of necessity and hardship,
but a source of bubbling joy.
SPECIAL GUEST: AUTHOR OF THE BOOK
SELTZERTOPIA, BARRY JOSEPH, WILL SPEAK ON
THE HISTORY OF SELTZER.
AN EGG CREAM MAKING EXPERIENCE WILL
FOLLOW.
