Weinstein JCC 80th Anniversary Block Party
October 25 @ 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM
The Weinstein JCC will mark eight decades in RVA with a free community block party featuring live music, family activities, food, fitness activities and more.
The Weinstein JCC 80th Anniversary Block Party takes place Sunday, Oct. 25, from 3–6 p.m. at the Carole and Marcus Weinstein Jewish Community Center on Monument Avenue. The celebration is free and open to everyone, and JCC membership is not required.
Plans include live entertainment from Susan Greenbaum, children’s activities and family fun, food and refreshments, pool and fitness activities, local vendors, community organizations and programs from the JCC.
The anniversary celebration will also recognize 80 Community Champions who have contributed to the JCC and the broader community. Guests can participate in an interactive community quilting project celebrating the people, programs and memories connected to the organization’s eight-decade history.
Founded in 1946, the JCC originally opened on Idlewood Avenue before expanding its membership to the broader community and moving to its current Monument Avenue location in 1959. The block party is part of a yearlong celebration marking the organization’s 80th anniversary.
Additional activities and entertainment are expected to be announced closer to the event.
