| Now Showing in the Eisenberg Gallery: The Sofia Davidson Collection |
November 1-28, 2025
Staenberg Kooper Fellman Campus
Eisenberg Gallery
Free for JCC members and non members |
Holocaust survivor, Sofia Davidson, was a resilient soul who defied the darkness of her past through art. After the German invasion of Poland in 1939, Sofia and her daughter fled, narrowly escaping the horrors that would soon engulf her homeland. Their path to freedom led through Russia, Israel, and eventually Mexico. The Sofia Davidson Collection is a realistic embodiment of the “quiet trauma” etched into the souls of so many Jewish survivors. This collection aims to acknowledge that the unspoken stories hold equal importance to the history of the Holocaust as do the outspoken stories frequently shared with the world.

| Omaha Jewish Community Food Drive |
The continuing government shutdown and pause in SNAP benefits has left many Omaha families struggling to access nutritious food. In response, Omaha Mayor, John Ewing, has launched a city-wide campaign to support local food pantries.
From now until the end of the government shutdown, the JCRC and partnering organizations will be collecting nonperishable food items, baby supplies, and hygiene products. Donations can be dropped off in the big blue bin located inside the vestibule of the main Front Entrance (Door 2).
For more information, please contact Pam Monsky, 402.334.6572 or pmonsky@jewishomaha.org.
