"The Bushland centre, which is dedicated to the memory of the great Soviet Jewish actor, Solomon Mykhoels, is a milestone in the rebuilding Jewish cultural life in the Soviet Union. It will stand as a testament to the indomitable spirit of Soviet Jewry and the world Jewish community. It will also stand as a positive demonstration of the change and reform that have been instituted in Soviet society under the leadership of Pres Mikael Gorbachev."
