SHOLEM ALEICHEM
INSTITUTE
Established in Detroit over 90 years ago, we are an organization focused on our
cultural heritage. We celebrate the holidays with reflections, stories, music and
prayers in English, Hebrew and Yiddish
A new festival this fall, formed by a
partnership among three local orga-
nizations, will celebrate Windsor’s
rich cultural diversity and its sense
of unity, according to its organizers.
“This is really all about how food
brings people together,” Jay Katz,
executive director of the Windsor
Jewish Community Centre said of
Hummus Festival 2018. “We want to
showcase the variety of food that’s
here, but we also wanted to cel-
ebrate our uniquely collegial com-
munity, which makes us one of the
most desirable places to live and one
of Canada’s best-kept secrets. And
besides, who doesn’t love hummus?”
Hummus Festival will take place
from noon to 4 p.m. Sunday, Sept.
23, at Catholic Central High School.
The event, organized by the
Windsor Jewish Community Centre,
the Windsor Islamic Association
and the Windsor-Essex Catholic
District School Board, will bring
together local restaurants to show-
case their versions of the traditional
Middle Eastern staple, as well as
other hummus-inspired dishes.
“Our school seemed like the most
logical place to host the event,” said
Danielle Desjardins-Koloff, principal
at Catholic Central High School, 441
Tecumseh Road East in Windsor.
“Our student body is made up of
kids from more than 70 different
countries, so we celebrate cultural
diversity every single day.”
Mirza Baig, president of the
Windsor Islamic Association, said,
“Besides being an opportunity for
local residents to enjoy some excel-
lent cuisine, this event will provide
people with the chance to meet and
interact with those they might not
get to otherwise.
“Socializing over food is a won-
derful way to break down barriers
and learn about the similarities that
unite us as people who share this
community.”
Besides eating excellent local
food, those who attend Hummus
Fest will also get to enjoy some great
entertainment, including the Light
of East Ensemble, an Ontario group
whose repertoire encompasses
traditional, folk, Classical Arabic,
Sephardic, Greek Rembetika and
20th-century urban music from such
regions as Armenia, Greece, Turkey,
Egypt, Lebanon, Syria and Israel.
Tickets are $5. For more informa-

One Earth Writing Launches
College Essay Workshop
One Earth Writing, a nonprofit
focused on building confidence in
teens and connecting them with
peers across racial, religious and
socioeconomic lines through writing
workshops, is launching a three-part
seminar this fall to help high school
students write the college applica-
tion essay.
Intended for sophomores and
juniors, but open to seniors cur-
rently applying to colleges and uni-
versities, the seminars meet for three
sessions where students develop
the writing skills to help their voice
stand out from the crowd during
the application process. Session one
focuses on “who am I and who do I
want to be”; session two empowers
students to actively select colleges
that will help them achieve their
goals; and session three puts every-
thing together toward finishing an
essay that responds to one of the
Common Application questions.
“Because One Earth Writing focus-
es on empowering teens, we wanted
to help take some of the stress out
of the college application process
and help students realize they have
power in this process,” says Lynne
Golodner, CEO and founder of One
Eath Writing.
Five sessions will be offered dur-
ing the 2018-2019 academic year. For
locations and dates, visit
