facilities here include a large
auditorium, social hall,
chapel, library with several
thousand volumes of
Hebraica and Judaica and a
four-story religious school.
This is one of fifteen con-
gregations in a city where
Jews have made impressive
progress since they first came
in the Gold Rush fever of
1849. They started as ped-
diars, miners and merchants.
But soon they became big
business entrepreneurs
(Gumps and I. Magnin were
founded by Jews); engineers
(Joseph Strauss, a Jew,
designed the Golden Gate
Bridge); and cultural and
political leaders. Adolph
Sutro, engineer and book col-
lector, was a mayor; Florence
Prag Kahn was the first
Jewish congresswoman; and
Washington Bartlett was a
mayor who became governor
of California.
Today, San Francisco's Jews
participate fully in city life,
while preserving their own
culture and history.
History is painfully and
memorably preserved in
George Segal's stark
sculpture, Holocaust. It
depicts ten emaciated bodies
lying on the ground, their
skeletal limbs intertwined. A
lone figure stands near the
bodies, with slumped
shoulders and blank face star-
ing outward past the barbed
wire fence.
Dedicated in 1984 in Lin-
coln Park, the sculpture was
desecrated four days later by
vandals who smeared black
paint on the white bodies and
wrote, "Is this necessary?"
Jews and non-Jews alike
rallied in anger. A guard was
posted nightly at the
memorial, and an anonymous
donor began sending fresh
flowers each day. The tradi-
tion continues. A visitor to
the memorial — a must for
the Jewish traveler — is like-
ly to see sprigs of red roses
resting on the skeletal bodies.
The same year Holocaust
was dedicated, the Jewish
Community Museum opened
its doors as the city's only
museum dedicated to Jewish
art.
Families have contributed
special Jewish art projects at
Chanukah. Artists from the
Jewish Home for the Aged,
whose ages ranged from 70 to
96, exhibited their water-
colors and self-portraits.
This effort to blend Jewish
culture with the cosmopolitan
flavors of the city is typical of
Bay Area treat: vity. "We
want to create museum
that's well integn. )d into the
San Francisco community,"
says museum director Linda
Steinberg. ❑
