Expanding the Arts
Completed renovation makes Temple–Tifereth Israel ready for Sunday debut as Maltz Performing Arts Center
It’s a win-win for all concerned, and especially for the public, which through CWRU programs and events will gain access to a spectacular performing arts venue that is both new and old.

“Violins of Hope” honor the music and the memory of those who perished in the Holocaust

“Beyond that, [playing instruments recovered from the Holocaust and restored] demonstrated irrefutably that art always trumps hatred and violence.” Congrats to Cleveland Orchestra & Case Western Reserve University. Such a powerful performance and a great Violins of Hope Cleveland kickoff.

Though I’ve been home for several hours, I still hear violins—Violins of Hope—echoing through Silver Hall at The Temple-Tifereth [Israel.]

Overtime detail [as a Case Western Reserve police officer] this week consisted of protecting the priceless violins used and restored from the Holocaust. Sometimes police work intertwines with some really interesting subjects.
[As a “Violins of Hope” brochure puts it:] “When a visitor first brought Israeli violin maker Amnon Weinstein a violin for repair, explaining that it had helped him survive the Holocaust as he played for Nazi soldiers in the death camps, Weinstein saw only ashes. The ashes of Weinstein’s own 400 family members who did not survive the Holocaust.
“Three decades later, in 1996, Weinstein was ready to take on the project—one to which he would dedicate his life as he tracked down more and more of the violins Jewish musicians played during the Holocaust to sustain hope and life, often in death camps where musicians were accorded some privileges, including the privilege of life.” #casewestern #police #violinsofhope #thisiscle
"We're deeply proud and excited to not only have the chance to showcase our newest film at such an exciting venue, but to also use the opportunity to further promote the Maltz Performing Arts Center and all that it offers the CWRU student body and the city of Cleveland."

Russo brothers to host ‘Captain America: Civil War’ screening

The Russo brothers [attended] Case Western Reserve before producing their first feature in 1997. The brothers went on to earn an Emmy ... before directing films such as 2014’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier.” The screening will serve as a fundraiser for Phase Two of the Maltz Performing Arts Center renovation...
@cwru, @ClevelandArt announce bold greenway plan for @inthecircle

Stretching from the Tinkham Veale University Center through to East 101st Street, the Nord Family Greenway will include an event lawn, an amphitheater with sloped grass steps, a paved walkway and a cantilevered bridge and overlook of Doan Brook. Designed by Sasaki Associates, the 430,000-square-foot commons exemplifies the ideals of connection and community central to Case Western Reserve’s 2015 master plan.
