Center Inauguration of the Jain Center of Greater Boston, Norwood, 26-28 June 2010

The Jain Center of Greater Boston (JCGB), established in 1973, has seen great growth over the years. Now with over three hundred members, the community purchased a former synagogue in Norwood that will better serve its needs than the small former church it used to occupy. After months of collaboration to renovate the new Center, it was officially opened at the Inauguration in June 2010. A rare event, the Inauguration was celebrated with vibrant decorations, rituals, a procession, and a cultural program.
