Join us for the premiere of Through Children’s Eyes—a moving documentary concert that brings to life the poetry and drawings of children imprisoned in the Terezin (Theresienstadt) concentration camp.
Set to an original score by Cantor David Shukiar and filmed on location in Terezin and the historic Attic Theatre, this film is a tribute to the creativity, resilience, and spirit of young lives lost too soon.
✨ Stay after the screening for a behind-the-scenes conversation with: ✨
- Cantor David Shukiar, Composer
- Mark Saltzman, Librettist
- Steven Shapiro, Executive Producer
Experience an in-depth discussion exploring the extraordinary journey behind the film, from the emotional path that led them to Terezin, to the unexpected miracles that opened doors once thought closed, and the deeply personal process of transforming children’s words and drawings into music.
This behind-the-scenes conversation offers a rare glimpse into a project born of remembrance, reverence, and hope.

As part of our ongoing commitment to enhancing campus security, safety, and convenience, we are introducing RFID gate access tags for all staff and congregants. These tags will be installed on your vehicle, allowing you to enter through the parking lot gates automatically.
🔐 What is an RFID Tag?
An RFID tag is a small sticker that enables automatic access through our security gates when driving onto campus. It will be installed on your vehicle’s front passenger-side headlight. Once installed, the front parking lot gate will automatically open as your vehicle approaches.
🛠️ Installation Process
To ensure a smooth distribution process, RFID tag installation times have been scheduled by last name. 📍 Installation will take place in the back of the parking lot and should take no more than five minutes, depending on traffic.
📋 What to Bring
Please bring the following to your installation appointment:
- One fully completed RFID application per vehicle
- The vehicle receiving the tag
- Photo ID to verify your identity. This helps us ensure accurate distribution and maintain the security of our campus access system.
