The DelawareCoun ty Sym -phony (DCS)

presents a very spe -cial Family FocusedConcert titled “Music:The First Social Net -work” on Sunday,

Nov ember 8, 2015 at3 p.m., in the MeagherTheatre of the Thom -as A Bruder, Jr. LifeCenter at NeumannUniversity, Aston, PA.This concert has avery special ticket price of $5 for all ages, for all seats andit is appropriate for all age levels from age 5 to age 85.This concert will be under the baton of Dr. Robert Whalen,

Assistant Conductor of the Delaware County Symphony. Inhis own words he tell us: “I invite you to bring the wholefamily to this fun, engaging program exploring how and whymusic unites, uplifts, and transforms us. It will feature musicof Schubert, Beethoven, Bach, Mahler, and others. It walks theaudience through the elements of music one by one with rhythmand melody and harmony. The idea behind the program isthat chamber music is something very different than orches-tral music. It is all about the individuals on stage listening andcollaborating with each other as individuals not just part ofa larger organization so the focus is on listening and in col-laborating. I think that’s a skill that we all can work on espe-cially young people. The audience will see and hear musi-cians trading ideas with each other and be actively engagedin the musical experience. The program features musiciansof the DCS, and YOU, the audience. Yes, you will be an inte-gral part of the performance! Let’s put it this way, if you’veever secretly wished to sing Beethoven’s Ode to Joy, then

ARTsisters, a group of professional women artists from the Philadelphia area, will be work -ing with The Art Gallery at Franklin Commons to produce a group exhibit, “Explora tions

of Contrasts. Explorations of Contrasts” will be curated by Katie Naber, an artist and theArt Curator for The Art Gallery at Franklin Commons. The exhibition is free and open tothe public from Saturday, November 7 through Friday, December 4. Gallery hours areMonday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., and closedSunday. An opening reception will be held on Saturday, November 7 from 1 p.m. until 4 p.m.Light refreshments will be offered and a guitarist, Chris Adams, will be sharing his musicaltalents during the opening.

The theme of the show reflects the individuality of expression found in the range of artworks presented. Each person is unique and the marks they choose to make are distinctive,too. Additionally, in art “contrast” generally refers to differences: bright colors next to dullcolors, light values shifting to dark, what is there as opposed to empty spaces. These arejust some of the contrasts that artists explore to form an artwork, to make an object or animage. Moreover, as every artist uses assorted materials in their own way, each artworkhas its own characteristics, its own features. This means that the viewer of this exhibitionalso has an opportunity to explore contrasts by seeing the various lines, shapes, patterns,and colors in an artwork and by making comparisons between each of the works.

As stated by Katie Naber, “I look forward to bringing the talented work of the ARTsistersgroup to the daily lives of the community through Franklin Commons—to inspire new cre-ativity and expression.”

Franklin Commons, located at 400 Franklin Avenue in Phoenixville, PA, boasts a varietyof mixed-use spaces for everything from educational to corporate to recreational facilities.The offerings at the Gallery at Franklin Commons include rotating exhibitions, art work-shops for all levels, guided tours, and special Family Nights. School groups are encouragedto visit. The Gallery’s goal is to engage and educate the community in the arts, and pro-vide an outlet for the community to support local artists.

For “Explorations of Contrasts” at The Art Gallery at Franklin Commons, the ARTsisterswill be donating to New Day Women’s Drop-in Center. New Day Drop-in Center, located inthe Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia, is the centerpiece of the Salvation Army’sefforts to address human trafficking by providing a full-time staff, safe refuge, and services

to women exploited by sex trafficking and the commercial sex trade. For information aboutthe Center, visit http://pa.salvationarmy.org/greater-philadelphia/antihuman-trafficking-pro -gram; to donate using a cell phone, text “New Day Center” to 41444.

Ron Nocella began playing guitar at age eight. After listen -ing to the likes of Wes Montgomery from his Dad’s bakery shopradio, he was inspired to learn and study jazz guitar. His for-mal guitar studies began in his teens, studying initially withFrank DiBussolo, who taught him the essentials in guitarstudies. He then studied jazz improvisation in the late 1970sat the late bassist, Al Stauffer’s music school in South Phila -delphia. Via studies with Stauffer, bassist in the trio of leg-endary pianist Bernard Peiffer, he was moved from thinkingoutside the jazz guitar paradigm. After meeting Jimmy Brunoat Stauffer’s studio, Bruno became a huge influence, person-ally and professionally. “Ron’s a fine jazz guitarist, has always

been a friend and a pleasure to work with,”said Bruno. He also studied classical guitarwith Dr. Robert Trent, Pro fessor of Music andDirector of Guitar and Renaissance Lutestudies at the College of Visual and Per form -ing Arts of Radford Uni versity. Ron Nocellahas performed at dozens of area clubs and col-leges, including the Rowan and Media JazzFestivals; was a featured art ist at SuburbanSchool of Music, and his CD, “Urbanated,” aswell as several other records he’s been fea-tured on through the years, re ceived heavyradio airplay and received critical acclaim.

Composer/pianist Joseph Nocella is one ofthe few artists anywhere who is fluent in bothjazz and classical music. Classically, he stud-ied with the famed Romeo Casarino and voicewith Romeo’s wife, Dolores. Like his brotherRon, Joseph also studied improvisation withbassist Al Stauffer. Armed with a Masters ofMusic Degree from Temple University, wherehe studied composition, he began a long andfabled career as a composer, educator andpianist.

Guitarist/composer/vocalist/educatorpoet/recording artist Monnette Sudler hasbeen a treasure in this region and beyondfor more than four decades, but in the fall oflast year, it looked like time was running outfor this major contributor to jazz. Doctors deter-mined that, given her battle with IdiopathicPulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) lung disease, a lungtransplant was the only way she would be ableto continue to contribute. Jazz Bridge, thisregion’s non-profit that assists area jazz andblues musicians in need, stepped in to helpraise funds to facilitate the transplant, and onOctober 28, 2014, the operation was performedat Temple University Hospital. Two monthslater, she was back on the concert stage.Monnette Sudler wanted to give somethingback, and indeed she is, via a Jazz Bridgepresentation at the Bainbridge Club on Sun -day, November 15 from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m., whereshe’ll perform with her trio at a fundraiser forthe first annual Jazz Bridge Women and Chil -dren’s Fund, formerly the Daphne Fund. Sudleris the Chairwoman of the event and will takeover as the fund’s spokesperson. Tickets tothis important gala are $35, and that includes a sumptuous meal in this beautiful and historic Bainbridge Club, fabulousmusic via Sudler, pianist Barry Sames, drummer Darryl Kwasi Burgee and bassist Steve Beskrone; and the presentation ofthe annual Jazz Bridge “Making a Difference” award. Yes, there will be door prizes, a raffle, and a portion of the ticket priceis tax deductible. The Bainbridge Club is located on 1523 Bainbridge Street near South Philadelphia. For advance tickets,visit www.jazzbridge.org.Monnette Sudler was originally inspired by fellow guitarists Pat Martino, Bolo Sete and Wes Montgomery, and the musicof legends like John Coltrane and Yusef Lateef. Her early work, going back to her first recording for Steeplechase Recordsin 1977, was pretty much in the jazz mainstream, but she has continued to evolve stylistically, combining elements of dif-ferent genres, often in tandem with spoken word. In her prolific career, she’s toured the world and has recorded with giantslike Reggie Workman, Grover Washington, Jr. Hamiet Bluiet, Steve Turre and Cecil McBee, among others.Originally called the “Daphne Fund,” the Jazz Bridge Women and Children’s Fund was set up to help the families of ourprofessional jazz and blues musicians in crisis. In the past, Jazz Bridge has helped a bass player’s wife who was battlingbreast cancer and needed money for over-the-top medical bills and a drummer's baby daughter who had a serious accidentand needed hospitalization and rehab.Jazz Bridge, an award-winning nonprofit dedicated to assisting Greater Philadelphia Metro area jazz and blues musicians

and vocalists in times of crisis, sponsors these neighborhood concerts throughout the regionto keep the sound of Philadelphia alive.

I couldn’t think of a better way to spend a Sunday afternoon than to attendthis concert!”The concert, the latest of many presented by the Bala Cynwyd Library, is appropriatelytitled “Good Vibrations…” It is scheduled for Sunday, November 15 at 2 p.m. at the Woman’sClub of Bala Cynwyd, 382 Bala Avenue (at Levering Mill Road).

The Theater Program of Bryn Mawr and Haverford Colleges(Mark Lord, Chair) presents four selections from Erik

Ehn’s collection of short plays, “The Saint Plays,” directedby Catharine K. Slusar, a Barrymore Award-winning Phila -del phia actor and director and assistant professor in theBryn Mawr College Theater Program. Playwright Erik Ehn haswritten over 150 Saint Plays, loosely based on the lives of saints,of which the program will present four: Wholly Joan; The Freak;Thistle; and Tree of Hope, Stand Firm.In a confluence of forces this fall, Philadelphia emerged as

the center of a temporary but powerful spiritual vortex—visited by the Pope and hundreds of thousands of his pilgrimsin September and then by representatives of the Dalai Lamaand many Buddhist followers as he was honored at the Consti -tution Center in October. Curious as to what brings peopleto make sacrifices and journey long distances to witness orpartake in these spiritual gatherings, Catharine K. Slusarsought to investigate the extreme sacrifice and faith exem-plified in the lives of saints in Ehn’s works. She explains, “Ehn

takes the lives of saints and explodes them, putting them intoa contemporary or popular context mixed with a dash of mys-ticism. These plays are about devotion, faith, and the imag-ination. They ask us to investigate our notion of self, and whatwe will sacrifice for our beliefs.”“The Saint Plays” open the Theater Program’s 2015-2016 sea -

son, with six performances (November 13-15 and 19-21) atthe Hepburn Teaching Theater (Goodhart Hall, Bryn MawrCollege). Opening night is Friday, November 13.Performance Schedule: Friday, November 13, 7:30 p.m. –

St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children to Host Child AbusePrevention Conference and Celebrate 10 Years

Penn Vet’s Ryan Hospital is hosting the 7th annual National Service Dog Eye Exam eventsponsored by the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists (ACVO) and Merial.

On May 6, 8, 12-16 and 21, Penn Vet’s Dr. Gustavo Aguirre, professor of ophthalmology;Dr. William Crumley, staff ophthalmologist; and Dr. Stephen Gross, staff ophthalmologist,will join 190 ACVO board-certified ophthalmologists conducting eye examinations across thecountry.

The ACVO/Merial National Service Dog Eye Exam is a philanthropic effort generously pro -vided to the public by the board-certified Diplomates of the American College of VeterinaryOphthalmologists, who donate their time and services to provide free ocular exams to quali -fied service animals.

As a way to serve dogs who dedicate their lives to serving us, these exams are free to reg-istered service dogs across the United States and Canada. Through these efforts, service doghealth can be improved and potential disease averted.

How to Make an AppointmentTo qualify, animals must be “active working animals” that were certified by a formal train-

ing program or organization or currently enrolled in a formal training program. The certi-fying organization can be national, regional, or local in nature.

1. Owners/agents for the animal(s) must FIRST register the animal via an online registra-tion form at www.ACVOeyeexam.org. Registration ends April 30.

2. Once registered online, the owners/agents will receive a registration number and willbe allowed access to a list of participating ophthalmologists in their area.

3. Owners/agents may then contact Ryan Hospital’s appointment desk (215-746-8387) toschedule an appointment

What Veterinary Ophthalmologists Look for During the ExamDuring the complete ocular exam, veterinary specialists look for problems including red-

ness, squinting, cloudy corneas, retinal disease, early cataracts, and other serious abnor-malities. Early detection and treatment are vital to these working animals.

The American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists® is an approved veterinary special -ty organization of the American Board of Veterinary Specialties, and is recognized by theAmerican Veterinary Medical Association. Its mission is “to advance the quality of veterinarymedicine through certification of veterinarians who demonstrate excellence as special istsin veterinary ophthalmology.” To become board certified, a candidate must complete a Doctorof Veterinary Medicine degree, a one-year internship, a three-year approved residency, andpass a series of credentials and examinations.

What did it mean to our

grandparents? What will it

mean to our grandchildren?

WHAT WAS IT LIKE FOR OUR

ancestors to say goodbye to the shtetl, to set

out to discover new lives for themselves, along

with all of the liberties the free world had to

offer? At the dawn of the enlightenment,

how did our parents adapt their Judaism

to the developments of a modern age?

And what can we learn from their

struggles, in order to connect

more deeply with our own

Jewish identities?

The Friends Free Library at Germantown

Friends School celebrated National Library

Week by asking library visitors (students, em -

ployees, parents and community members) to

share how libraries have changed their lives.

“It has been so much fun to hear all of the

different stories,” says library assistant Kath -

ryn Murphy. People wrote on a dry-erase sign

and shared a “selfie” photo to the nationwide

hashtag campaign #NLW14 #LivesChange.

The stories included a high-school student

recalling memorizing her library card number

before she knew her phone number, a pre school -

er writing that reading books about dinosaurs

makes him feel like he is “living with the dino -

saurs” and a community patron sharing his dream

of one day becoming a librarian. “Dreams are

discovered in libraries and libraries provide a

path for those dreams to come true,” says Murphy.

Kackie St. Clair, head of the Friends Free Library,

says, “Libraries are a place to connect your

knowledge and your curiosity to the worlds be -

yond the library walls; and a much-needed place

for some peace

and quiet.”

At the FFL, the

staff assists com -

munity mem-

bers with com-

puter skills, writ -

ing resumes and

filling out job

applications.

The also get to

know and help every student. “These connections may be small but they are significant in

building a sense of community and belonging,” says Murphy. “Libraries provide endless

resources and support—for FREE! That is a beautiful thing.”

The photography of Roman Catholic Car -dinal Prospero Grech (O.S.A.) of Malta

opens November 16 at the Villanova Uni -versity Art Gallery in a solo exhibit the 89-year-old Cardinal calls “A Thing of BeautyIs A Joy Forever” (giving credit to John Keats).

A free public opening reception with musicand free refreshments will take place Friday,November 20, from 3 to 5 p.m. in the ArtGallery, which is located in the ConnellyCenter on the Villanova campus. The Cardinalwill not be in attendance. Convenient on-campus parking is available. The exhibit con -tinues to December 11.

Cardinal Grech says he strives for beautyin imagery that balances color, light and tim -ing, with his favorite subject matter beingpeople and architecture. One of his moststriking examples of the former is a close- upof Pope John Paul II squinting against thesun, a Crucifix held tightly before him.

Identifying himself as theologian, teacher,writer, researcher, and mentor, Cardinal Grechlists photography as a hobby. It’s one he con -tinues to grow in, says Villanova Art GalleryDirector Rev. Richard G. Cannuli (O.S.A.),who notes, “I’ve been watching his progressover the years. The time is right for him and

Villanova to have his work shown here.” (Cardinal Grech and Villanova, as an Augustinian university, share a common the-ological heritage in the Order of St. Augustine.)

The Cardinal’s eye for architecture shows in “Venice,” his bird’s eye view of tiers of classically ornamented and age-worncolonnaded facades of buildings facing a Venetian plaza on which rows of chairs and tables lined up with military preci-sion stand devoid of people.

His sense of humor comes through in his photo of an artist passed out on his painting of wine bottles, which he calls “Ine -briated In His Own Paintings.” In the black-and-white “Papal Audience,” the only audience to be seen is a sea of wet um -brellas.

Among Cardinal’s most cherished places are St. Peter’s Square, the Vatican Gardens, and his homeland of Malta. In “Sunset,St. Peters Square,” statues silhouetted against the failing light seem to be marching in live procession. A land of broadcultural and religious diversity, Malta has one of the world’s oldest Christian traditions, dating to AD 60 when the shipbearing St. Paul to Rome for trial, foundered there.

Born in 1925 in Vittoriosa, Cardinal Grech joined the Augustinian Order in 1943 and was ordained a priest in 1950. It wasat about that time that he picked up his first camera, an easy-to-operate, black-and-white, fixed-focus German model.

“Mostly,” he says, “I used it to photograph books and documents.” In time, the copier supplanted the camera for suchwork, freeing him to broaden his photographic horizons. He remembers:

“I got a better camera and took it with me wherever I went. I’d wander the streets, and whatever struck my eye, I got theangle on it I wanted and took a picture of it. The pictures I took, I took for myself.” Only on rare occasions has his workbeen offered for public view.

Chabad is one of the most illogical success stories of the century. Their amazing growthbegs the question, “How does a group of Brooklyn-based, black-hat, bearded rabbis be -

come a billion-dollar powerhouse?”While religious organizations are shrinking and hemorrhaging members and donations,

this Chassidic group has the fastest growing, largest Jewish network in the world. Forthose wanting to learn from Chabad’s success, they need to know their secret.What could inspire a 26 year-old rabbi to make the decision to spend the rest of his life

in Siberia, Mumbai, or Boise growing a community and raising a family? How does Chabadtransform these yeshivah-trained rabbis into successful community entrepreneurs? Howdoes an organization headed by one of the world’s most dynamic and influential leaders,not only survive the loss of his leadership, but flourish? For the first time, a true insider tells all. Rabbi David Eliezrie is the author of new best-

selling book, “The Secrets of Chabad: Inside the World’s Most Successful Jewish Move ment.”He will be speaking at the Kaiserman JCC, 45 Haverford Road, Wynnewood, on Tuesday,November 10, at 7:30 p.m. about “The Rebbe’s Six Big Ideas that Transformed Modern Jew -ish Life.”The book has received critical acclaim from many, including Alan Dershowitz, Dennis

Prager, Senator Joseph Lieberman, and Joseph Telushkin (see www.DavidEliezrie.com).Through first-hand accounts and moving stories, Eliezrie takes audiences inside the lives

of the amazing men and women who make it happen, and the brilliant and inspiring lead-ership behind it all. These fascinating insider stories make for a moving, uplifting, and enter -taining evening. For information on Rabbi Eliezrie speaking in Wynnewood, contact Rabbi Moshe Brennan,

Marine Drake gave a shortpresentation about the evolution of the United States flag from its earliest days startingwith Britain’s St. Georges Cross flag that explorer John Cabot planted in Labrador on behalfof King Henry VII, to our current flag, “Old Glory.” The history of the Pledge of Allegiance wasalso part of the program. The students were very bright and asked pertinent questions ofthe team. In addition, various bugle calls relevant to the Flag were rendered by MarineFitzpatrick and as always were the hit of the program.The General Smedley D. Butler Detachment of the Marine Corps League, headquartered

Bring a picnic or purchase lunch from T&N Homemade Kitchen and enjoy the river-front picnic area!The year 1777 was a pivotal one for the American Revolution. That fall, the land war was rag-

ing: Washington had suffered defeats at Brandywine and Germantown. It was imperativethat the British clear the Delaware River for supplies to reach Philadelphia in time for their armyto pursue the beleaguered Americans. Fort Mifflin stood strategically between the Britishsupply ships in the river and the occupying British army in Philadelphia. It was here at a smallfort on a muddy island in the Delaware River that an exhausted band of young Ameri canpatriots held back the British supply ships until a bitter winter set in. Washington and histroops used this time to establish winter at Valley Forge, re-grouped in the spring and wenton to defeat the British. This battle is considered the greatest bombardment of the Ameri -can Revolution and described as “the costliest weeks of the war” by a British officer. Experi -ence it at Siege Weekend!

As psychiatrist Susan Lowenstein (played by Barbara Streisand) works with her patient’sbrother, Tom Wingo (played by Nick Nolte) to discover a family secret, they fall in love withone another. Dr. Mark Shulkin, Clinical Associate Professor of Psychiatry Emeritus at DrexelUniversity Medical College, shows film clips that portray Nolte’s character developmentfrom early childhood through a broken marriage, while using an example from his own mar-riage to illustrate how movies mirror common life experiences.

New Horizons Center’s Upcoming Programs

Acritical Jewish tenet is “Tikun Olam” or “to repair the world.” Ending homelessness inAmerica is one important way of repairing the world.

The exhibit, “Homeless but not Hopeless,” opens on First Friday, November 6, at Old CityJewish Art Center, 119 North 3rd St, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

This exhibit is a collaboration between two artists: Diana T. Myers, Housing and CommunityDevelopment Consultant, and Genny O’Donnell, Director of the Coordinated Outreach Center(CHOC), a homeless shelter located in Norristown, PA.

The 18 individuals in these images were all residents of the CHOC when their portraitswere photographed.

Most had been homeless for at least six months, and some much longer. Looking at themyou might think, “Are these individuals truly homeless? They could be my neighbors, or evenme.” And you could be right. Homelessness touches people of all ages, genders, religionsand races, without discrimination.

Despite the ravages of homelessness, these individuals remained hopeful. And today, withthe assistance of the CHOC staff, resources through the Montgomery County Office of Hous -ing and Community Development and the Montgomery County Behavioral Health/Develop -mental Disabilities Department, 95% of these individuals are living in their own homes, andmost are employed.

To create these pieces, Ms. Myers printed a series of mono prints on paper which she thentore into strips and wove together.

Each of the 18 subjects selected his or her own woven background Ms.O’Donnell thenphotographed these woven pieces and each portrait subject. For the final step, Ms. O’Donnellsuperimposed the portraits on each individual’s chosen woven background.

Ms. Myers weaves to represent the way Jewish values and ethics are formed, interwovenand passed down from one generation to the next. Ancient beliefs and precepts are hand-ed down to Jewish children and then to their children’s children and so on, while at the sametime, each generation adds its own spirit to the tapestry.

In addition to the portraits, several of the original weavings are on display.To learn more, meet the artists and hear first hand from some of the portrait subjects,

stop by the artists’ reception on November 8 from 4 to 6 p.m. The exhibit runs throughNovember 31, 2015.

The Old City Jewish Arts Center (OCJAC), a non-profit art gallery located on 3rd Street,in the heart of Old City gallery district, uses the arts as a universal language to disseminateuniversal messages of Judaism to the broadest audience as possible. Since 2006, the galleyhas been providing a forum for Jewish artistic expression that introduces art lovers to Jew -ish culture and tradition.

OCJAC is open 12 - 5 p.m. Sunday - Thursday, and private viewings can be made by appoint -ment. Reservations can be made by calling, 215-923-1222 or emailing: [email protected].

Music and quite

an accomplished

Chanlan had a

deep passion for

music that was transparent and vibrant. He was involved

in not only solo performances, but chamber groups and

intensive summer camps. His hard work paid off when he

was the youngest soloist chosen to perform on the stage

at the Kimmel Center as a platinum winner of the NBS Golden

Key Competition. In addition to his heart for playing, he was

also dedicated to the scholarship program that supplement-

ed his lesson fees. To show his appreciation, he took initia-

Willis Award recognizes women

The American Women in Radio

one of the 50 greatest women

in the history of broadcasting,

and the Library of Congress

named her a “Living Legend,”

making her one of a select group

of Americans to have attained

that honor. A member of the

Broadcasting and Cable Hall of

the boards of several non-prof-
