Jewish Community Centers of Greater Boston (JCC) 30th Anniversary Celebration of Leventhal-Sidman campus in Newton

NEWTON,

Mass. – October 15, 2013 – The Jewish Community Centers of Greater Boston (JCC)

is celebrating the 30th anniversary of its Leventhal-Sidman campus

in Newton with a full day of events on Sunday, October 20, 2013. The

celebration includes events that reflect the strong programs and activities the

JCC provides to thousands throughout the community every year, including arts

& culture performances and interactive programming for young families.





 





“30 years ago our community came together to imagine the

role a JCC could play in a thriving Jewish community. Since then, we’ve built

Jewish identities and family traditions. We’ve built healthy minds, bodies and

spirits. We’ve built leaders, dancers, philanthropists, artists and teachers.

In our three decades, we have built the foundation of a strong Jewish community

for today and for generations to come,”

said Mark Sokoll, President and CEO of

JCCs of Greater Boston
. “We look forward to continuing to provide

contemporary experiences that advance the aspirations of our constituents and

to support and strengthen the Jewish community of the future so that every

individual and Jewish organization thrives.”
