Traditional JCMI January events to continue

By Sue Baum, President

The wonderful programs that have become the signature of JCMI shall continue with livestreaming.

The public is welcome!

Wednesday, Jan. 6 at 3 p.m. The Greater Naples Jewish Book Festival, sponsored by our congregation, will present author Debbie Cenziper via Zoom. Cenziper is the director of investigative evidence at Northwestern University and a Pulitzer Prize winner for her nonfiction book, “Citizen 865: The Hunt for Hitler’s Hidden Soldiers in America,” the gripping story of a team of Nazi hunters at the U.S. Department of Justice as they raced against time to expose members of a brutal SS killing force who disappeared in America after World War II. Go to www.JewishBookFestival.org to register. The charge is $10.

Saturday, Jan. 16 at 7:30 p.m. JCMI opens the 27th year of the Saul I. Stern Cultural Series, in partnership with the Federation. Music from Jewish composers who shaped the music of Broadway will be presented by two outstanding musicians and world ambassadors of music, Dan Weiser and Tom Schwartz. The timeless music and interesting dialogue about the history of the composer has attracted international acclaim. The presentation will be provided by streaming.
