Spring Programs On Sale Now

After this very cold and very snowy winter, aren't you ready for spring? We are, and in our opinion, the programs lined up for this spring are not to be missed. A great concert of songs from the Yiddish and Gaelic traditions performed by Irish chanteuse Susan McKeown and the Klezmatics’ Lorin Sklamberg kicks off the season on March 3.

Later that week meet Gaylen Ross, director of the acclaimed, Killing Kasztner, at the screening of the movie on March 7. A segment of the documentary was filmed here and we are excited to welcome Gaylen back to the Museum.

Get in the mood for Passover with our family program, The Macaroons: Let’s Go Coconuts, on March 14. This rock band for kids, the first on the JDub label, will bring great whimsy and big harmonies to Edmond J. Safra Hall.

Pierre Sauvage, documentary filmmaker and child survivor of the Holocaust, will be here during a retrospective of his work March 17-21. The schedule includes excerpts from a new work in progress, And Crown Thy Good: Varian Fry in Marseille, as well as the award-winning Yiddish: The Mother Tongue. Read a preview by Jewish Week arts writer George Robinson.

Author David Sax and cookbook maven Arthur Schwartz shmooze about David’s book, Save the Deli, on March 24. Sax’s quest to save the endangered deli is an intelligent and humorous look at the world of cured meats piled high on rye, soups laden with schmaltz, and other cholesterol hazards.
