On October 8, Holocaust Community Services at CJE SeniorLife, in partnership with the Russian-Speaking Jewish Division of JUF and Skokie Public Library, welcomed more than 100 community members, including 33 Holocaust survivors, to commemorate the 85th anniversary of the Babiy Yar massacre.
The moving program featured a keynote address by award-winning journalist and author Howard Reich, a special tribute to acclaimed artist and Holocaust survivor Mikhail Turovsky, musical performances by alumni musicians of the Civic Orchestra of Chicago, and an in memoriam presentation by students and teacher Dr. Jeff Ellison of Bernard Zell Anshe Emet Day School. Holocaust survivor authors also shared their stories through book signings.
Through music, remembrance, and reflection on the Holocaust in the former Soviet Union, we came together to honor the victims of Babiy Yar, remember the lives lost, and help ensure their stories are never forgotten.

Who knew Jewish composers wrote some of the best Christmas music? Our highly popular event returns! Local musician, Kurt Loeffler, will look at famous Jewish American composers including Irving Berlin, Mel Torme, and many others who were the first-generation children of Jewish immigrants. We’ll discuss many of the popular holiday Christmas songs like “White Christmas” and “Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire” which have become classics for largely Christian audiences. Save room for sufganiyot!
