JCC
Maccabi Artsfest is a premier arts and Maccabi experience
for Jewish teens, grades 8-12.
Participants choose an art specialty and take part in
performances and master classes. This annual summer
experience features social activities, artists-in-residence
who are at the top of their fields, opening and closing
events and performances, and community service, while it
strengthens bonds to Jewish heritage, community, and Israel.
Our JCC is sending its second delegation to the JCC Maccabi
ArtsFest in Irvine, CA this August.

years program, contact Gilad Ben Zvi , ArtsFest Coordinator,

Teens
Special Needs Training Institute
In partnership with Mercy College, Ramapo for Children, JCC
of Mid-Westchester, and the Riverdale YM-YWHA, the JCC on
the Hudson will recruit high-school age students to
participate in a college credit level program, providing
training and hands-on experiences working with individuals
with disabilities.
Students are required to commit 75 hours (35 hours
community service, 40 hours stipend) working in the various JCC special
needs programs. In addition, each student will participate in five
three-hour training sessions to be held on Sundays from noon to 3:00
p.m. at Mercy College.
Students are supervised and offered opportunities to share
experiences with other students. Successful completion of
the internship and course work will yield one college
credit.
SNTI is limited to 25 students. The program provides an
excellent opportunity for resume building for college and high school
community service requirements.
