Tarbuth Foundation, Arts School Moving Into Goodman House
By BEN GALLOB
in the Lincoln Center area
of mid-Manhattan.
The $3.5-million, eight-
story Goodman House is a
tribute to the vision and
dedication of Abraham
Goodman. The idea for a
culture foundation was first
proposed in 1961 to the
Goodman brothers, Ab-
raham and Jack, by Dr.
Emanuel Neumann, the
veteran Zionist leader, now
the Tar,buth Foundation's
honorary president. The
foundation's first office was
in the Jewish Agency build-
ing in Manhattan. Ab-
raham Goodman, a leading
Jewish philanthropist and
treasurer of the Jewish
Telegraphic Agency, is
president of the Tarbuth
Foundation.
In 1975, the Foundation
received office space in the
H. Goodman and Sons Co. in
Manhattan and there,
under the executive vice
presidency of Dr. Emil
Lehman, continued and ex-
panded a multitude of
Jewish cultural programs.

tion for the Advancement of

brew Arts School for Music

Lehman, who had been di-
rector of the Herzl Institute
for 20 years, was invited by
Goodman to become founda-
tion executive - vice
president after he had
served the foundation as a
consultant for-a decade.
The Hebrew Arts
School, operating out of
rented quarters in the
Lincoln Center area, was
started in 1962 as the first
music and dance conser-
vatory of its kind. It cele-
brated its 15th birthday
last fall. Starting with 16
students in two small,
borrowed classrooms,
the Hebrew Arts School
reported at the start of
the 1977-78 school year
more than 500 students
and a part-time faculty of
50 teachers.
Lehman said the founda-
tion and the arts school will
share the facilities of the
Goodman House. These in-
clude a 500-seat concert hall
and a major recital
chamber, as well as many
music and dance studios
and a major library for
Jewish music.
Also included is an ex:
hibit section to display
works of Jewish art; a
variety of recreational
facilities; a garden; and an
out-reach center using
radio, television, audio-
visual arts and other forms
of communication to spread
the ideas and values of the
Jewish cultural experience.
There will also be 12 piano
studios and 10 instrumental
studios.
Both the foundation and
the school are now moving
into Goodman House and
expect to be functioning
fully by the _end of this
month. The Abraham
Goodman building will be
formally dedicated Nay. 19.
The facilities of Good-
man House will make
possible not only con-
tinuation of the many and
varied programs of the
foundation and the arts
school- but also a consid-
erable expansion of the
programs of both institu-
tions.
This is particularly true
of the Tarbuth Foundation,
which has conducted its
far-ranging programs from
its offices in the Goodman
company, compared to the
school which, though func-
tioning in rented quarters,
has had enough facilities for
a children's division, art
education programs, a
teacher training institute
and a performing arts di-
vision.
