If you missed the Klezmer fest, have never been inside the 1887 Eldridge Street Synagogue, you can fix it all this Sunday afternoon. The synagogue has been restored as a non-sectarian cultural center-museum. It's wonderful. If you enjoy great buildings and careful restoration work this is for you (I've been sneaking in now and then as the work has progressed). To commemorate the grand re-opening and the National Historic Landmark’s 120th anniversary, the museum will hold an open house featuring free docent-led tours of the synagogue, traditional music and a Make-Your-Own-Rose-Window art activity for children. Eldridge Street Synagogue, 12 Eldridge Street 2:00PM - 5:00PM

Join Rosalie Caliendo, Larry Sternfeld and Marjorie Gersten As we meet, greet and support~ Steven Harrison Democratic Candidate for Congress in CD-13 In his run to unseat Vito Fossella Sunday, December 2nd from 3PM to 6PM 2400 East 3rd Street, Apt 605 (between Avenue X and Avenue W) Gravesend in Brooklyn, New York Wine and refreshments Suggested contribution $50.00 and up, or whatever you can contribute. NY Times Editorial Board endorsing Steve in his 2006 run: "Mr. Harrison...is an attractive alternative to Mr. Fossella in his own right. Mr. Harrison has a presence in both sides of the district; he resides in Brooklyn, while his mother and sister live on Staten Island. As chair of Community Board 10 in Brooklyn, he demonstrated leadership as he oversaw one of the city's largest efforts to contain overdevelopment through rezoning. He has a good command of the issues, and a feel for the concerns of the district. Mr. Harrison surprised many with his passion and keen intelligence in a series of debates with Mr. Fossella. The distinctions could not be clearer. We endorse Mr. Harrison for Congress."

To all our Friends and Neighbors, It’s the end of the year but the beginning of a new political season. We are supporting Steve Harrison for another run at Congress. The 2006 election proved Steve to be a candidate with fresh ideas, excellent debating skills and perhaps more importantly, honesty and integrity. He did really well last year with very little money. A strong show of support will help in gaining the financial support of the National Democratic Party and put our District well on the way to finally getting the Congressional Representative it deserves. We invite you to join us on December 2nd from 6-8PM at 14 St. Austin’s Place Staten Island 10310. Let’s party for Steve Harrison for Congress!!! We are trying to connect with some musicians for a Jazz scene or maybe we’ll just dance!
