When: Sun., April 23, 1-3 p.m. 2017

Violins of Hope follows the journey of Israeli violinmaker Amnon Weinstein in his efforts to restore violins recovered from the Holocaust, and captures the lessons and highlights the music the instruments now bring to others. It will be followed by the half-hour documentary, "Joe's Violin," which tells the story of how a donated musical instrument forges an improbable friendship between 91-year-old Holocaust survivor Joe Feingold and 12-year-old Bronx school girl Brianna Perez.
