Holocaust Education Week Brings Films, Speakers and Art Exhibitions to Miami

With the alarming rise of antisemitism throughout the US and abroad, this year’s Holocaust Education Week, beginning Sunday, November 7 through Friday November 12, offers critical learning tools for our community. The community-wide program, presented by the Holocaust Memorial Beach, a Committee of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation, opens with a virtual commemoration of Kristallnacht: “The Night of Broken Glass.” Additional programming throughout the week includes a photography exhibit by Holocaust Survivor Laszlo Selly, a public film screening of The Zookeeper’s Wife and a moderated discussion with Survivor Allan Hall. All events will be virtual, unless otherwise noted, free of charge and open to the public. Advance registration is required. Program access information will be sent following registration confirmation. For more information and to register, click here.
