Main Front Entrance to Reopen Soon
We are finishing up the final touches to our main, west facing front entrance. We anticipate this front entrance will be open February 1st! Communication will be sent to our members when this entrance is officially open. Please be advised, that when this main entrance reopens, the current southwest access point (entrance 1) will be permanently closed. This access point will then become an emergency exit only.
We are beyond excited to show you all of the beautiful renovations that have occurred in this area of the building. Our new learning commons area includes co-working spaces and meeting rooms. Additional new and exciting spaces to watch for include the Alan J. Levine Performing Arts Theater, Linda & Nelson Gordman Black Box Theater, Weisman Family Reception Room, Milton Mendel & Marsha Kleinberg Hall of History, Blumkin Family Institute for Holocaust Education Leaning Center, and Center for Positive Change.
