 | This shot was taken just as the dancers returned to the Marcus auditorium in November. Wow, what a difference a fire makes. The old fashioned style of 50 years ago was gone - replaced by a new, more open, more attractive auditorium. If you are familiar with the previous style of the Marcus, you have to be impressed with what was done in restyling. |
 | Mentioned in locations is the imposing presence of GJC as you approach heading northwest on Lincoln Drive. This is taken out of a car a block away from the intersection where the center is. Another view of this is in locations. |
 | This is a unique shot. The chapel which dominates the first floor of the building is being rebuilt from the grouond up. All the chairs have been scraped and new concrete has been laid. This is a shot of the chapel shorn of all but the pulpit. |
 | Another shot of the chairless chapel. While the concrete had to be poured, it was expected that the same chairs would be returned to their location. But time has a way of changing things. After almost 60 years of usage, the chairs crumpled as they were taken out and new chairs will have to be installed. |
 | Any chairs from the chapel that could be salvaged were brought up into the Marcus auditorium to create a makeshift chapel. You can see the chairs in the middle of the Marcus prior to a Sunday dance session. One thing about Israeli dancers, these types of distractions are danced around, through or over and therefore the added obstacles caused by the chairs did not deter the Israeli dancers. |
 | Some interesting art work is within GJC. On one wall of the Silver Kiddush Lounge, where we sometimes dance, is a special type of caligraphy made up of all the words of the torah. No camera work can do this justice, but here's a shot of some of these pieces of caligraphy. |
 | Doing what we do best, dancing away in spite of any obstacles, here's a Sunday class in session. The picture's been blurred to protect both the guilty and the innocent |
