by | Feb 14, 2014 | What’s Happening

Friday, February 21, 7:30 pm

Ohef Sholom Temple will celebrate its annual Men’s Club Shabbat with members of the Men’s Club leading the service.

Jefferson C. Harrison, chief curator of the Chrysler Museum of Art, whose topic is “Nazi-Era Provenance Research and the Chrysler Collection,” is the featured speaker.

Locating works of art confiscated by the Nazis between 1933 and 1945 and restoring them to their rightful heirs has for decades been a central commitment of international arts and legal organizations.

Preceding the service at 6:30 pm, a dinner prepared and served by Ohef Sholom’s Sisterhood will take place.

Dinner is $10 per adult and child over 12; children under12 are free. The community is invited to the dinner and service. RSVP to reservations@ohefsholom.org.
