JCMI Saul I. Stern Cultural Series’ 27th Year
A
s a man who had vast contacts in government and the political world, Saul I. Stern was an important Washingtonian. Most importantly, he was devoted to the State of Israel. Saul and his wife, Marcia, were long-term residents of Marco Island and each year, they sponsored a tennis charity tournament to benefit The Immokalee Foundation. The Sterns also became active members of the Jewish Congregation of Marco Island (JCMI). The concept of a cultural series that would enhance the congregation, the greater community of Marco Island and the outlying communities, was introduced by the Sterns. Over the years, events have featured Ambassador Dennis Ross; Steve Emerson, the professor
who holds the Lerner Chair at Brandeis; the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum’s display of the voyage of the St. Louis; and leading musicians from the Naples Philharmonic. This year marks the 27th year for the JCMI Saul I. Stern Cultural Series. To keep everyone safe in the COVID-19 environment, the Cultural Series will be livestreamed this season.
