This organizational process is designed to help move our agency into the future with thoughtful planning\, strength\, foresight\, and fiscal efficiency … all with the goals of ensuring excellence\, being responsive to our community and developing engagement opportunities. \nThis Strategic Planning process has been led by an incredible committee of lay leaders along with a dedicated group of professional staff\, and in partnership with the experienced planning firm Collaborative Strategies\, a preferred vendor of our JCC Association\, which has done this work for over 100 JCCs throughout our system. \nIncluded in the visioning has been: the gathering of individual feedback\, community and partnership outreach\, the evaluation of key organizational priorities\, the inclusion of numerous user groups\, and determining overall community areas of need. The outcomes and priorities were discussed at a Board of Directors Retreat yesterday\, along with the implementation steps. \nThe priority areas include:\n– The launching of an Early Childhood Academy – Preschool along with an enhanced Parenting Center to meet the growing demands for pluralistic Jewish experiences among young families.\n– Enhancements and transformation of our Arts & Cultural Center to establish us as the premiere arts & ideas destination on the Beach.\n– Expanding and strengthening our focus on developing Youth & Teen Programming.\n– Strengthening the Center’s Membership Value proposition while recreating new agency marketing\, branding & logo.\n– And\, an enhanced growth model for both Fundraising & Capital Improvements. \nWe are happy to share that there are timetables for all of these important initiatives. In fact\, our Pilot Preschool -“Early Childhood Academy” is already deep into the licensing process now\, and we are excited to begin that program on-site this fall. Currently\, there will be limited capacity for 2 & 3 Year Olds\, so if you are\, or know of families\, currently looking for a Pre-School home – please reach out to our Director Rosalyn Sejas. \nWe are truly thankful to the entire Miami Beach JCC Strategic Planning Committee: Chairperson Audrey Weiner\, Board Chairman Michael Tobin\, Past Board Chairperson Joy Spill\, and Board Members – Mara Geronemus\, Loren Kaiserman\, Randy Lawrence\, Marc Lehmann\, Holly Levy\, and our Professional Executive Staff – Nataly Yusim\, Bernie Rovt\, Karen Sepsenwol\, and me. \nAmazing things continue to happen each and every day here at our Miami Beach JCC … as we now begin our exciting second decade of Excellence as a full-service\, state-of-the art agency serving our Miami Beach community.

The War was a trau­ma for Israel and fol­low­ing the oil embar­go\, a piv­otal reorder­ing of the glob­al eco­nom­ic order. The Jew­ish State came shock­ing­ly close to defeat. A pan­icky cab­i­net meet­ing debat­ed the use of nuclear weapons. After the war\, Prime Min­is­ter Gol­da Meir resigned in dis­grace\, and a 9/11-style com­mis­sion inves­ti­gat­ed the “deba­cle.” \nBut\, argues Uri Kauf­man\, from the perspective of a half cen­tu­ry\, the War can be seen as a piv­otal vic­to­ry for Israel. After nearly being rout­ed\, the Israel Defense Forces clawed its way back to threat­en Cairo and Dam­as­cus. In the War’s after­math\, both sides had to accept unwel­come truths: Israel could no longer take mil­i­tary supe­ri­or­i­ty for grant­ed — but the Arabs could no longer hope to wipe Israel off the map. A straight line leads from the bat­tle­fields of 1973 to the Camp David Accords of 1978 and all the treaties since.

With nearly 50 years in the industry\, he will share myriad inspirations for his designs while walking you through client projects. Known for his relaxed\, elegant environments that incorporate one-of-a-kind pieces with antiques as well as objects found in his travels to remote parts of the world\, his designs maintain a fresh appeal that stands the test of time. From Cuban refugee to a successful designer\, Vicente will discuss personal tales of his experiences as well as design lessons covered in his new book\, CREATIVE INTERIOR SOLUTIONS (Rizzoli; April 2023)\, written by Margaret Russell\, former Editor in Chief of Architectural Digest with a foreword by Marianne Williamson\, a former client and presidential candidate. \nBook signing of his new book will follow the program. \nWhen Vicente Wolf left Cuba and landed in the United States in the 1960s\, he didn’t have a dime to his name or a plan for his life. But he did have an open mind\, a good sense of style\, and a willingness to work hard. \nWhen he discovered interior design in the 1970s\, there were kind mentors who helped him learn the business. In the decades since he’s had a distinguished design career spanning nearly five decades\, opened his VW Home showroom in New York\, written five books\, garnered all kinds of awards\, including having his name included on the AD100 list in 2016\, and earned the undeniable right to be referred to as a “legend.” \nKaren Boyer is a highly regarded art advisor and founder of Elements in Play Fine Art Advisory. She merges passion and strategy to elevate the collections of individuals and families\, ensuring their aesthetic\, financial\, and legacy goals are seamlessly met.
