A center for survivors of the Nova music festival massacre offering long-term recovery programs and cultural and sports activities will be unveiled on Wednesday in a forest near the Israeli coastal city of Netanya.
The $3.2 million project, primarily funded by UJA-Federation of New York donors, seeks to be a place for recovery, support, and remembrance benefiting thousands of survivors of the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack on the southern Israel music festival, where nearly 400 Israelis were killed.
The Nova House, located in the Ilanot Forest approximately 8 miles southeast of Netanya, will offer community programs, training workshops, recovery activities, access to treatment, and an education and commemoration center.
The public unveiling and ribbon-cutting ceremony will include remarks from a Nova survivor, a returned hostage, and a bereaved family member, as well as UJA leaders.
“The UJA New York Nova House stands as a symbol of hope, resilience, and the enduring strength of the Nova community,” said Eric Goldstein, CEO of UJA-Federation of New York.
“True to the Nova slogan, ‘We will dance again,’ this House will provide opportunities for healing, growth, and community connection.”
