FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MERCAZ-Canada will be taking part in Jewish Music Week in Toronto on Sunday, May 26th, 2024. (Lag B’Omer)
We will be hosting “The Afro-Semetic Experience,” a unique group of musicians who Nat Hentoff, of The Wall Street Journal, wrote “never before have I heard this lyrically powerful a fusion of Jewish and jazz souls on fire.”
Tickets are now available and we are also looking for generous sponsors, both private and corporate to help us make this even an incredible success. This is the first event in Jewish Music Week, so tickets will go quickly. We will be holding the concert at the Borochov, and have only 340 seats at the venue. This is an early announcement as JMW has not published their programme yet, so you have time to get tickets before the publicity hits.

REMEMBERING THE HOSTAGES
Each day that the hostages are still being held by Hamas, Masorti Israel has a Tekhet (ceremony) at the Hostage Square at the Tel Aviv Museum.
May all the hostages soon be released in good health and the hostilities end.
