BREAKFAST FORUM
GOVERNOR ANDREW CUOMO

“I would wager that in the primary, more than 50% of the Jewish people voted for Mamdani,” Cuomo told the crowd of around 450 at a breakfast event Sunday at the Hampton Synagogue. He believed they were influenced by Mamdani’s appeal to younger and first-time voters who, Cuomo said, view criticism of Israel as opposing the policies of the Israeli government in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. “They are pro-Palestinian, and they don’t consider it being anti-Israel,” he said.

ISRAEL'S RENOWNED JEWELRY ARTIST
ISAAC LEVY - YVEL

This past Sunday evening, we welcomed Israel's renowned jewelry artist Isaac Levy, founder of the iconic Israeli brand Yvel, to the Manes Art Center Guest Artists Series.
The program was moderated by Donna Schneier, and covered Isaac's career, artistic inspiration, and Zionist values. In particular, Isaac described how he was in the process of opening a Yvel factory in Southern Israel, his contribution to economically supporting the region affected by October 7 and the ongoing war in Gaza.
Following the program, informal conversation continued over a champagne reception as attendees viewed a spectacular curated jewelry display.

SUMMER GRILLIN'
WALL STREET GRILL

Last Monday evening, Great Kosher Restaurants founder Elan Kornblum hosted our first Demonstration Dinner of the summer, featuring Chef David Kolotkin, Executive Chef of Wall Street Grill.
The program began at the Ring Culinary Island and Presser Family Outdoor Kitchen, where Chef David explained and demonstrated the technique and method he used as he grilled the meat we would soon enjoy.
Attendees then moved to the Edelstein Hall, where an elegant 3-course meal, including wine pairings, was expertly presented and explained.
At the dinner, Rabbi Marc Schneier recognized Isaac Levy, whose Yvel jewelry display added a unique element of luxury and beauty to the atmosphere.
The next Summer Grillin' event will take place Mondy evening, August 18, featuring UN Plaza Grill.

See you at Shul! Dune Deck is again very generously providing Saturday shuttle service that makes regular loops around Westhampton Beach [see schedule and stops below - watch for the white Hampton Hopper minibus], connecting Dune Road with the village. This hop-on/hop-off community service will again be available, free of charge, to anyone who wants it. This year, the service is expanded with stops on the "mainland," including the corner of Bayfield Lane and Oneck Road. This service may enable those who find it difficult to walk long distances in the summer heat to attend The Hampton Synagogue, as one of the stops in town is at CVS, just across the street from the synagogue.
NEW - 8:30am stop at the Bath & Tennis
For more information, contact Dr. Barry Helprin (barryhelprin1@gmail.com)

Located at Jack’s House, the Manes Art Center of The Hampton Synagogue in Westhampton Beach engages members of the greater Hamptons community in high-quality works of art and cultural experiences for the educational and enhancement of all.
The Manes Art center is the gift of our distinguished benefactor, Dr. Harvey Manes, a passionate collector of art for over 40 years. Dr. Manes sits on the Board of the Nassau County Museum of Art and has lent numerous works from his collection to notable museums, including the Museum of Contemporary Art (Chicago), Heckscher Museum, NCMA, Jewish Museum-NYC, and others.
The quality and breadth of the Manes Art Center collection features an eclectic collection of modern, contemporary, and old master artists, as well as sculptures. Artists in the collection include Andy Warhol, Basquiat, Koons, Salvador Dali, Roy Lichtenstein, Marc Chagall, Yaacov Agam, Jim Dine, among others.
On permanent view in the Barnet Family Chapel is the work of world-renowned artist, Dale Chihuly, who designed and created the Chapel’s Fiore windows that allow natural light to interact with the space in dynamic harmony, Eternal Light, and the only Menorah of Chihuly’s illustrious career.
| | | | We are proud to offer the only Jewish study library & Beit Midrash in the Hamptons as a community resource, containing both volumes of torah scholarship and general Jewish knowledge & culture. We invite you to visit The Aranowitz Library in the Kaylie Center, open during normal business hours and on Shabbat. | | | | |
