We are honored that Mayor Derek Kawakami has issued a mayoral proclamation in support of the island’s Jewish community and against antisemitism. 

In celebration of this proclamation, there will be a proclamation ceremony at the Mayor’s Rotunda on March 23rd from 10:30 - 11am. The event is open to all who want to support this historic moment, and we hope to see you there.
