Founded in 1924 to serve the growing Jewish population in Indianapolis, the Jewish Community Center was originally located downtown before moving to a larger facility on the north side in the late 1950s. On February 9, 1930, Arthur Garfield Hays of New York spoke in Indianapolis on 'Let Freedom Ring' at the Kirshbaum Community Center. Hays said that the efforts of large corporations to prevent union organizers from working among their employees, is "not due so much to objection to the political principles of communism, as against the organization of workers for group expression of their opinions and needs."
