The Jubilee Center of Hoboken

By Jack Silbert on March 30, 2016

I first learned of Hoboken’s the Jubilee Center in 2008, when one of Yo La Tengo’s Hanukkah fundraiser shows at Maxwell’s raised money for the after-school program and summer camp for underprivileged children. All these years later, I was honored to write an article about the Jubilee Center for the March/April issue of hMAG.
