The Jewish Community Center, or JCC, provides families and individuals of all denominations with a variety of services -- from child care, to fitness classes, to arts and cultural events.

It has now closed its physical building and moved its schedule to a virtual platform. The virtual JCC experiences are free and available at the JCCIndyArts Facebook page.

From our Arts and Culture Desk, WFYI’s Jill Ditmire spoke with Cultural Arts Coordinator Kelsey Eberle about how the nonprofit is adjusting. Practicing social distancing, Ditmire reached Eberle by phone.
