Ne’imah members include singers of any religion or synagogue affiliation from throughout the area. The Chorus’ mission is to acquaint, educate and enrich the Jewish and non-Jewish community of the Capital District of New York state with the variety and richness of the Jewish choral music repertoire.

Jack Malik is a struggling singer-songwriter in an English seaside town whose dreams of fame are rapidly fading, despite the fierce devotion and support of his childhood best friend, Ellie. After a freak bus accident during a mysterious global blackout, Jack wakes up to discover that The Beatles have never existed. Performing songs by the greatest band in history to a world that has never heard them, Jack becomes on overnight sensation with a little help from his agent.

Hearing Loss Association, Albany Chapter

The holidays can be stressful for all, but for those with a hearing loss the added stress of trying to hear and communicate in the noisy environments of parties, restaurants and family gatherings can take its toll. Come and learn strategies to cope and learn what you can do to make your holidays more enjoyable.

Presented by Ellen Rupert, a consultant trainer for Capital Employee Assistance Program.
