Our Mission

Teach the lessons of the Holocaust to inspire action against bigotry, hatred, and violence.

We do this through:

  • Displaying artifacts and photographs which tell the individual stories within the larger history of the Holocaust;
  • Providing Educational programs and activities to students at all grade levels;
  • Presenting general public programs and exhibits that highlight elements of our collection and stories related to the Holocaust and other genocides;
