НазваниеTicket to the "Conjunction Dance"
ОписаниеTicket to the "Conjunction Dance" held by the Maccabean Sports Association at the Palais Royal on Monday the 16th (the ticket has pieces torn away, but the date appears to be 16 July, would be the year 1934). Tickets were 1'3. The reverse of the ticket has the number 1862 stamped on it and is an advertisement for the New Palais Royal venue reading "Always a Night of Sheer Delight".
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.
