We’re thrilled to announce that, for the twelfth time, we’ll be providing ASL
interpretation for the annual Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day)

Synagogues in Lower Manhattan that includes us at Town & Village (T&V,
www.tandv.org), and hope that you can join us!
• WHAT: The ceremony will include remarks from Rabbis from several area
Synagogues, along with songs from the Cantors and Choirs of those Synagogues,
Memorial Prayers, and remarks from a Guest Speaker.
• WHEN: 7:00 PM — 8:15 PM ET (GMT-5) on Monday, May 6th
• WHERE: Brotherhood Synagogue, 28 Gramercy Park South in Manhattan, NOT at
T&V
• WHO: Organized by Downtown Jewish Life; Interpreters are Jane Adler &
Kathleen Taylor, whose work will be underwritten thanks to UJA-Federation of
New York’s Jewish Community Deaf Interpreting Fund.

for free. (Please also RSVP via email to Bram at bramweiser@usa.net to let us

• TO ATTEND REMOTELY: We’re trying to arrange for the livestream to include
the interpreters in their own window. If you’re unable to attend in person,
but might want to join us remotely if that can indeed happen, then please
email Bram at bramweiser@usa.net with the names and email addresses of those
who’d like to do so, and we’ll let you know if it actually becomes feasible.
We apologize that this isn’t confirmed yet though we’re working to try to make
it so.
