Professionals of Ann Arbor (JYP)
hosted its annual Community
Celebration to celebrate the

and install the 2021-2022 board.

event, which was held at Temple Beth Emeth, enjoyed appetizers

Outgoing board president Joelle Abramowitz spoke about the
critical role of groups like JYP in building community and of the
lay leaders that drive them. Incoming president Sheira Cohen
shared how JYP has been a central fixture of her Jewish life during
her time in Ann Arbor and her excitement for the year ahead.
The event concluded with a champagne toast and socializing.
