The wider Jewish community has been anticipating the opening of the new Kleinman Family Holocaust Education Center in Boro Park. Spearheaded by the philanthropist Elly Kleinman, the new education center�s mission is to present the Jewish experience during the Holocaust in a way that other centers have failed to do, with a special emphasis on the Orthodox Jewish experience. An exciting development in advancing the center�s mission is its newly announced choice of Ami Magazine as its media partner.
That partnership will be multifaceted. A weekly column by the director of the Kleinman Center, Rabbi Sholom Friedmann, formerly of Torah U�Mesorah, will showcase the center�s collections and research. Further, periodic articles will act as a print exhibition of the center�s artifacts, with the magazine acting as a virtual wing of the Kleinman Center.
The first collaboration in Ami Magazine with the Kleinman Center is in this week�s issue. An in-depth interview with Elly Kleinman examines the genesis and planning of the center, and its focus, mission, and techniques for teaching a new generation about the trials and lessons of the twentieth century churban.
