Sixty years of Detroit Jewish community
history will be displayed in the exhibit
"Jewish Community Council: Sixty
Years of Working Together for Justice
and Harmony" at the D. Dan & Betty
Kahn Building of the Jewish
Community Center in West Bloomfield
during September.
Commissioned by the Jewish
Community Council in commemora-
tion of its 60th anniversary as the public
affairs voice of the Detroit Jewish com-
munity and sponsored by the Ford
Motor Company Fund, the exhibit
traces the relationship between Detroit's
Jewish community and our metropoli-
tan community since the 1930s. Joe
Hines, designer of Federation's
Centennial Exhibit and principal of
Projects Arts & Ideas, was the architect
of the council exhibit.
Housed in the Sam and Miriam L.
Hamburger JCC Lobby, the exhibit
depicts cooperation among local ethnic
and religious groups. Educational mate-
rials will accompany each panel and be
provided to viewers of the exhibit.

Greenfield Village in Dearborn, where it
will be featured at the Henry Ford
Museum during October.
