Jewish Federations of North America launch an earthquake relief fund
In response to the devastating earthquakes that hit Turkey and Syria early Monday, Jewish Federations of North America have launched an earthquake relief fund to provide humanitarian aid and to support recovery efforts. Our overseas partners are on the ground in Turkey to assess the needs and determine how to be best positioned to help.
It’s almost March 1!

We are only a few days from the 10-day countdown to March 1st, the first day of our 24th Festival. We invite you to check out our website where you can view trailers, sponsor, and buy tickets or passes so you will be ready! 
Our new partnership with the Crocker Art Museum kicks off today, Thursday, February 16, at 6:30 p.m., with the showing of the classic silent German horror film from 1920 – The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. Film Festival Sponsors at the $180 level and above receive 50% discounts. If you did not receive your discount code, please email helpdesk.sacjewishfilm@gmail.com.

This film is intended to complement their German Expressionist art exhibit (worth seeing!) and will be followed by films on March 16 and April 20. Click here to read about all three of these special films.
