I visited the brand new Fairmont Century Plaza in Century City–it is stunning and waiting for you!
Did you know that this hotel is on the former backlot of 20th Century Fox Studios? “Fairmont Century Plaza has a long history as a cultural epicenter. Originally deemed “The Hotel of the Future,” Century Plaza has always been home to industry disruptors, beloved Hollywood stars, American presidents, cultural trendsetters, and those just looking to bask in the energy of it all.”
May was first proclaimed Jewish American Heritage Month in 2006 by presidential decree, celebrating more than 350 years of Jewish contributions to the United States and underscoring our nation’s commitment to pluralism.
Seventy-seven years after Israel’s miraculous creation, the fact that we need a pretext for rabbis — of all people — to safely express their unapologetically pro-Israel, pro-Zionist convictions is an indictment of our time.
