TitelTicket to the "1932-1933 New Year's Eve Frolic"
BeschreibungTicket to the "1932-1933 New Year's Eve Frolic" held by the Maccabean Younger Set on Saturday, 31 December 1932 at 8:30 pm, at the Maccabean Hall, Darlinghurst. A midnight supper would be served and the Florence Gibbs Orchestra would perform. Dress is listed as "optional". Tickets were 2/5 1/2d. and the event was endorsed by the group's President, Cecil M. Goldstein, and Honorary Secretary, Miss S. Klarnett.
The Maccabean Hall (The Macc) has played an important longstanding role in the life of Sydney’s Jewish community. Three key periods define its rich and varied history. It was conceived and established as a war memorial and community centre from 1918. From 1939 to 1960, it became a vital support structure for pre and postwar refugees, and in 1992 the concerns and the passions of Holocaust survivors transformed the Macc into the Sydney Jewish Museum. In the 1930s, countless recreational activities took place here: dances, social functions, concerts, revues, literary and dramatic events and sporting events were held for Sydney's Jewish community. Religious services held at The Macc included communal Succoth and Passover services.
A collection of invitations and tickets for events held in the Maccabean Hall was donated by Fran Goldstein. They belonged to her father Cecil Goldstein who was active in the community and held many positions in Jewish organisations, including President of the Maccabean Sports Association, President of the Maccabean Younger Set, Vice-President of the Sydney Judean Soccer League, Manager of Interstate Sports Carnival sports teams, Committee member of the Maccabean Gymnasium and Committee member of the Council of the NSW Jewish War Memorial. He was also half-back for the Maccabean soccer team and a member of the Tip Toppers club.
