AACI’s Jenny and Max Weil Music Program
In November 2020, Judy Amsel and Daniel Weil dedicated the Jenny and Max Weil Music Program to honor the legacy and memory of their parents. Highlights of the dedication included memories shared by Judy and Daniel, a performance of some of their favorite music, the presentation of the “Broken Fiddle” sculpture to AACI, and stories from the grandchildren and a close family friend. “Broken Fiddle” is a memorial to musicians who died in the Holocaust and is a gift donated to AACI from the home of Jenny and Max Weil z”l who lived in Jerusalem from 1994 to 2019.
