Bill T. Jones/Arne Zane Dance Co. Art exhibit
Tzedakah boxes made by some of our JHJC Summer Camp campers were featured in an art exhibit displayed at the Center Theater during the Bill T. Jones/Arne Zane Dance Co. performances last month. Also, JHJC Board member Josh Kleyman participated in a panel discussion on the concept of Tzedakah prior to the performance.
