This collection consists of administrative and programming materials from the Jewish Community Center of Greater Minneapolis, earlier known as the Emanuel Cohen Center and now known as the Sabes Jewish Community Center.

The Jewish Community Center in St. Paul, which opened in 1930 first under the name of the Jewish Educational Center, began as a space for religious education and community activity programs, creating a space for the St. Paul Jewish community to come together for Jewish culture, child care, fitness, recreation and socialization.
