Yom HaShoah Commemoration 2025

Register for our annual program commemorating Yom HaShoah.

Yom HaShoah, or Holocaust Remembrance Day, is the day set aside to remember the approximately six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust. The Holocaust Center has been holding a community-wide commemoration every year since the establishment of the Center in 1980.

This year’s program will feature a performance by student musicians from Pittsburgh Youth Symphony Orchestra, impactful poetry readings, a screening of interviews with local Holocaust survivors & the child of a liberator, a candle-lighting ceremony, and other traditional elements.
