A Jewish section in the exhibition of art and literature of the national minorities in the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics was opened by the Jewish section of the Communist party in connection with the celebration of the tenth anniversary of the Bolshevik revolution.
The exhibit contains paintings of Jewish life in the new colonies. This unit was organized by the Comzet, the governmental department for settling Jews on the land. Drawings and poems by the children of Jewish colonists and charts of the Yiddish state theatres are included.
