Programming

•Multicultural Holiday Festivals - events that incorporate educational components for children on

Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and Muslim holidays.

•Martin Luther King, Jr. Commemorative Programs - events that celebrate the unique contributions of

Dr. King, bringing people together across a variety of what are commonly perceived as divides.

•Passover Freedom Seder - events that commemorate the movements from slavery to freedom of the

Israelites in biblical times, as well as that of African Americans in the 19th century.

•Clergy Conferences - events that bring clergy from across religions together to engage in dialogue.

•Teen programs - events where teens from the cities and suburbs, of different races, ethnicities and

religious backgrounds engage in dialogue: debates and group discussions.
