WILDWOOD – Beth Judah Temple invites the public to a Holocaust memorial program May 2 at 7 p.m. at the temple, at the corner of Spencer and Pacific avenues.
Yom HaShoah remembers the approximately 6 million Jews who perished in the Holocaust.
Titled “An Evening of Music and Memory of the Holocaust,” the program will be led by Dr. Karen Uslin, professor of Musicology at Rowan University.
Uslin will explain how Jewish music and music traditions were kept alive during the Holocaust, even though Jewish musicians and their music were banned from participating in cultural life once Hitler rose to power.
Uslin will take the audience on a journey through history via pieces composed during the Holocaust.
The program is free and open to the public. Light refreshments and discussion will follow the program. Students are especially encouraged to attend.
For details about the program, phone Beth Judah at 609-522-7541. Donations are gratefully accepted.
Beth Judah is Cape May County’s only active synagogue. The congregation celebrated its centennial in 2014.
