Director changes at the Jewish History Museum and Holocaust History Center
Bryan Solomon “Sol” Davis, Ph.D., has been the executive director of the Jewish History Museum and Holocaust History Center in downtown Tucson for the past five years. He oversaw the expansion of the Holocaust History Center, which first opened in 2013 as a one-room exhibit focusing on the lives of the more than 200 survivors who resided in Southern Arizona.
He previously served as director of the Jewish Community Relations Council and as the director of Holocaust education and youth education coordinator at the Jewish Federation of Southern Arizona.
As of Jan. 1, 2021, Sol will become the executive director of the Jewish Museum of Maryland in Baltimore.
“I’m honored to be selected for this position and excited by the possibilities as a way to bring people together,” Sol told JMORE Baltimore Jewish Living. “My overall museum vision is activating historic spaces, which hold so much power and possibility. … I believe in participatory programs. I view visitors not as audiences but part of the museum community.”

Sam Fox to open two new restaurants
Sam Fox, restaurateur and founder of one of Arizona’s most prominent restaurant groups, Fox Restaurant Concepts, confirmed it’s launching two new restaurants for online to-go ordering this winter. One is Fly Bye, a new concept in Phoenix serving pizza, chicken tenders and wings. The other is a takeout-only version of Flower Child, set to open in early 2021 in Tempe.
Both restaurants will not offer a brick-and-mortar building for dining; instead, the food will be prepared in a commercial kitchen, and customers can order food online for pickup or delivery.
Fly Bye is scheduled to open on Dec. 9 and will operate out of The Yard in central Phoenix, a converted motorcycle garage that houses Culinary Dropout.
According to a press release, menu items will include Detroit-style pan pizzas, hand-breaded chicken tenders, crispy wings, salads and mozzarella sticks. There will also be 10 house-made dips, including spicy buffalo and Culinary Dropout’s cheese fondue.
