political voice of the Jewish
community, the Jewish
Community Council of Metropolitan
Detroit will unveil an exhibit about
its work during the agency's 61st
annual meeting, scheduled for
Sunday, May 23, at the Detroit
Historical Museum.
The special exhibit, "Jewish
Community Council: Sixty Years of
Working Together for Justice and
Harmony," will open following the
council's annual installation of offi-
cers and board of directors. Kathleen
Strauss, the newly elected president of
council, will take over from Howard
Wallach. U.S. Sen. Carl Levin, the
keynote speaker, will talk of the role
the council has played in Detroit.
Michigan Attorney General Jennifer
Granholm will offer greetings.
The exhibit is a collection of arti-
facts, photographs and documents
taken from council archives. Beverly
Yost, community council liaison, said
the exhibit will remain at the museum
for two weeks before moving ro other
venues, including the D. Dan &
Betty Kahn Building of the Jewish
Community Center of Metropolitan
Detroit in September.

the respect we have in the general
community, oftentimes we are the
only exposure the general community
has to the Jewish community on pub-
lic policy and community relations
issues," said Wallach, the current
council president. The Jewish com-
munity, in general, is much more
effective and powerful than our num-
bers show we should 13e." 7!
