Jan Meisels Allen
For those of us who attended the outstanding IAJGS Conference in Warsaw
and visited the POLIN Museum we were in awe of the magnificent reconstruction of the ceiling >from the Gwozdziec Synagogue -- the centerpiece of the POLIN Museum. Temple Beth Am in Los Angeles, CA is installing a replica in its chapel for Rosh Hashanah. There is a movie, Raise the Roof, about the ceiling at the POLIN Museum which will be shown at American Jewish University on September 27 at 1:00PM. Cost is $6.00.
