SUMMARY:Caregiver Support Group Introductory Sessions at Beth Jacob Congregation

Through guided conversation and shared experiences\, participants will explore common caregiving challenges while helping shape the future direction and meeting schedule of an ongoing caregiver support group. \nAt Sholom\, we believe caregivers deserve care\, too. We are honored to partner with Beth Jacob Congregation to create a supportive community where caregivers can find strength\, encouragement\, and hope. \nIntroductory Session Options\nSunday\, July 12\n2:00 PM \nOR \nThursday\, July 15\n7:00 PM \nLocation\nBeth Jacob Congregation\n1179 Victoria Curve\nMendota Heights\, MN 55118 \nRSVP\nPlease RSVP to: \nAlex Carlon\n952-939-1554 | acarlon@sholom.com \nWe look forward to welcoming you.

SUMMARY:Carrying the Sound Forward: A Violins of Hope Closing Gathering
DESCRIPTION:As the Violins of Hope residency draws to a close\, we invite the community to gather for an evening of reflection\, blessing\, and shared presence. This closing program weaves together brief musical offerings performed on Violins of Hope\, reflections from local rabbis\, a specially commissioned dance performance\, and communal ritual—honoring the journeys these instruments have made and the stories they carry. The evening will culminate in communal singing\, a chance to send the instruments onward with love and care\, and to carry forward what we’ve heard\, felt\, and will remember. \n  \nFor the safety and security of all JCC patrons – any non-member guest attending an event at one of our Minnesota JCC campuses will need to show a valid US ID (Drivers License or Passport) to access the facility.

Born in Chicago\, she landed in St. Paul in 1989 where she came to work at the Talmud Torah of St. Paul Day School because the mission and vision resonated with her soul. After serving in many roles at TTSP\, she served as the Director of Hineni from its inception in 2014 to 2022. She believes passionately in the importance of Jewish learning and the impact it can have on people’s lives.

SUMMARY:Violins of Hope: Strings of the Holocaust Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Narrated by Academy Award-winning actor Adrien Brody\, Violins of Hope: Strings of the Holocaust follows Israeli master violinmaker Amnon Weinstein as he restores violins carried by starving Jewish refugees on death marches\, played under coercion in concentration camps\, and held close in ghettos and work camps—each instrument bearing witness to suffering\, courage\, and resilience. The film interweaves these histories with Weinstein’s mission to collect\, repair\, and return the violins to the world’s stages through performances by renowned musicians and orchestras\, an act of love and defiance against those who tried to silence both the music and a people. \nPost-film conversation featuring Violins of Hope Co-Founder Avshi Weinstein. \nView Trailer Here
