Center to host centennial display

A 14-panel display depicting highlights from the 100 years of service to the community of the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh is on exhibit through Tuesday in the Jewish Community Center of Greater Pittsburgh-South Hills, 345 Kane Blvd.

The display highlights the development of the Pittsburgh Jewish community, presenting an overview of each decade starting in the 1910s, when the Jewish Federation was founded as the Federation of Jewish Philanthropies.

Archival photos and excerpts from historical documents will be displayed. A timeline explains events within each decade. The display is part of a series of programs and projects marking the Jewish Federation's centennial year, which began in September.

Information: 412-278-1975 or dgarfinkel@jccpgh.org.
