Educational center devoted to informing the public about the Holocaust, genocides, & human rights issues. All events are open to the larger community.

We schedule–as permanent anchors in our programming–an annual November conference in memory of Kristallnacht (Night of Broken Glass) and an annual Yom HaShoah (Day of Remembrance) commemoration. We also offer films, lectures, performances
