Celebrate with Bagels and a Schmear

Jewish Family Services of Ulster County is celebrating its 10^th year and would like you to join us for Brunch at Ahavath Israel, Sunday, January 17. Our Guest Speaker will be Miriam Adler, Executive Director of Jewish Family Services of Northeastern New York, who will talk about “Aging in Place”.

Most of us want to continue to live in our own homes as we grow older, but the reality is, as we age, we need an increasing amount of help from our families, friends and community. JFS of Albany has developed some interesting ideas about how to provide that help and Ms Adler will be sharing them with us.

Please come and join in the celebration of our JFS’ s birthday party and find out how we can create our own community of caring. Cost for the brunch will be in advance $18.00 or $20.00 at the door. Please call JFS at 338-2980 and reserve your place.

Brian’s majestic canvases of everyday life in Israel have been shown by the Israeli Consulate in Los Angeles around the U.S. to represent Israel in Jerusalem 3000 celebrations and Yeshiva University Museum in New York. His paintings have been shown by the Smithsonian Institution, the Motion Picture Academy, the U.S. State Department in Europe, and museums and galleries nationwide.  His recently published autobiography ‘Search for Expression:  The Life and Art of Brian Shapiro”, is available via Amazon.com and lulu.com.
