Also in the exhibit are toys
made in the concentration
camps, a uniform from the
camps, photographs donated
by Atlanta survivors, and a
Torah from the Nazis' collec-
tion for what was to be its
Museum of the Extinct Race
in Prague. The collection
eventually landed in West-
minster, England, and a local
family purchased the Torah
for the Center.
This exhibit, so full of per-
sonal and poignant memen-
tos, will become part of the
Jewish Heritage Center to be
opened in Atlanta in 1994.
Next stop: Congregation Or
VeShalom at 1681 North
Druid Hills Road, N.E., the ci-
ty's only Spanish Sephardic
synagogue. (Also in Atlanta,
there's an Iranian Sephardic
congregation, evidence of the
city's diverse Jewish
population.)
Inside, visitors first notice
the unusual stained glass
sculpture mounted on brass,
representing an artist's vision
of the synagogue's name,
"light and peace."
In the sanctuary, which
seats 240, there are 12 stain-
ed glass windows in brilliant
hues depicting the 12 tribes of
Israel, and two 15-foot win-
dows showing a tree of life
and burning bush.
Executive director Martin
Karon explains that the win-
dows were designed by Sol
Beton, a prominent Atlanta
L artist and member of the con-
gregation. The front wall of
the sanctuary is all of stone,
representing the Western
Wall in Jerusalem, with the
ark recessed into the stone.
The congregation now num-
bers 400 members and is
led by Rabbi S. Robert Ishay
from Tunisia.
Ahavath Achim, known as
A.A., is Atlanta's largest
Jewish congregation. It is
headquartered at 600 Peach-
tree Battle Avenue, N.W. Built
in 1950, its massive sanc-
tuary seats 2,524 worship-
pers, and several artists con-
tributed to its design.
Finally, after seeing Atlan-
ta's varied synagogues and its
Holocaust Resource Center,
hungry travelers may want to
stop at Arthur's Deli at Briar-
cliff and LaVista.
Here they'll be able to in-
dulge in hefty corned beef,
pastrami and roast beef sand-
wiches, burgers, fried
chicken, pepper steak and
meat loaf — all fully kosher —
plus 700 kosher items to take
out in a separate take-out
department.
Arthur's cooking is one
more evidence that the flavor
of this Georgia capital is both
cosmopolitan and Jewish. El
