Upcoming Events 22nd Annual Generation to Generation Dinner
As the Museum approaches its bar mitzvah, this year’s dinner will focus on the stories of survivors who came of age during the Holocaust. At a young age, they often assumed great responsibilities despite unimaginable challenges. As we reflect on these experiences, including acts of spiritual resistance such as a clandestine bar mitzvah, it is particularly meaningful for us to remember those who were not able to celebrate their coming of age and be thankful for those who survived to share these simchas with their children and grandchildren. Sponsored by the Museum’s Associates and Young Friend’s Divisions, this event brings together Holocaust survivors, their families and friends to pay tribute to the six million Jews who perished, while honoring those individuals who survived to rebuild their families and communities. An online commemorative journal accompanies the dinner. For more information contact Shari Segel, 646.43.4322 or e-mail ssegel@mjhnyc.org.

Old Oaks Country Club, Purchase, New York Over 100 guests enjoyed a wonderful day of golf, tennis, raffles, an auction, delicious food and great company in a bucolic setting.
