History / Biographical
The Soloway Jewish Community Centre (SJCC) opened September 13, 1998. It is the modern successor to the Jewish Community Centre of Ottawa which was located in downtown Ottawa at 151 Chapel Street. The new SJCC is located in the west end of Ottawa at 21 Nadolny Sachs Private. It was named for Hy Soloway (1913-2004), a noted Ottawa lawyer and distinguished member of the Ottawa Jewish community. The first Executive Director was Linda Kerzner who was appointed in 1998. She was followed by Anita Bloom, June, 2006 to August, 2008. The current director is Barry Sohn. The Mission Statement of the SJCC states that it is a “gathering place for Jewish people and organizations. We provide a full spectrum of life enriching programs and services for Jews and non-Jews, members and non-members. As the hub of the community, the SJCC will make things happen. We actively support and facilitate community-wide events and ideals. We collaborate with a range of partners to address the social, cultural, physical and intellectual needs of the community. We are inclusive and transform resources into memorable Jewish experiences for people of all ages.” The SJCC is actually made up of a group of five organizations which include the centre itself; the Jewish Community of Ottawa Summer Camp, the Hapoel Cultural & Recreational Centre of Ottawa, the Vered Israel Cultural Centre and the Early Beginnings Multicultural Day Care Centre. The SJCC is a registered charity and is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of 23 dedicated volunteers. The Board oversees the operation of the centre and develops Policies and Strategic Direction.

History / Biographical
Yiddish Programing at the Chapel Street JCC began early in 1998 as a weekly program called “The Yiddish Hour.” This was an innovative and creative approach lead by Shirley Steinberg to teach and practice Yiddish language skills through conversation, stories, songs, and improvisation (or improv) games. When the Soloway Jewish Community Centre opened in September 1998, the Yiddish Hour regrouped and welcomed new members. Over the next three years, under the guidance and direction of Shirley Steinberg, the group developed a series of Yiddish programs called “Gelechter un Gezang” (Laughter and Song). By 2002, encouraged and inspired by the degree of interest and attendance, and with sponsorship from the Soloway Jewish Community Centre, the group began to perform under the name Die Folkshpieler – the Soloway JCC Yiddish Players; a group now made up of mature amateur actors having the goal of providing the community with more ambitious Yiddish theater. Die Folkshpieler presented their first formal theater production in 2003 entitled “Alles in Eynem” (Everything in One). In 2012, Die Folkshpieler celebrated its tenth anniversary with a retrospective production entitled “Fun Necht’n Biz Heint” (From Yesterday to Today) which featured highlights from their most popular theater productions. The group disbanded in 2015 after their last performance entitled “S’iz Besser in Yiddish” (Its better in Yiddish). Throughout Die Folkshpieler’s 14 year history, Shirley Steinberg took on the role of script writer, director, producer, manager and everything in between. A former New Yorker, Mrs. Steinberg is well known in Ottawa for her musical contributions. She was the director of the Israella Singers and the Shir-Am Choral Group.
