On May 6, a gala dinner and reception will be held at the Westin St. Louis Hotel. The event will celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of St. Louis Hillel at Washington University. “From Generation to Generation,” or M’Dor L’Dor, will be the theme of the evening.

Close to 300 guests will participate in the recognition and honor of the works of Lynn Lyss, Adam Simon, Rabbi James Diamond, Stephanie Kurtzman, Michael & Leslie Litwack, and Michelle Dorin, all of whose personal achievements represent the major concepts of St. Louis Hillel’s work: Leadership Development, Social Action, and Israel.

The evening’s program will feature musical presentations by an ensemble of local cantors and by Sta’am, the Jewish Student a capella group at Washington University. Festivities will start at 6 p.m. Complimentary valet parking will be available.
