SUMMARY:Americans and the Holocaust Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:The Holocaust was the systematic\, state-sponsored persecution and murder of six million Jews by the Nazi regime and its collaborators. Holocaust history raises important questions about what the international community\, including the United States\, could have done to stop the rise of Nazism in Germany and its assault on Europe’s Jews. Questions include: What did Americans know? How did Americans respond? What more could have been done? \nAmericans and the Holocaust looks closely at America’s role in this history. The United States alone could not have prevented the Holocaust\, but more could have been done to save some of the six million Jews that were killed. This exhibition examines the motives\, pressures\, and fears that shaped Americans’ responses to Nazism\, war\, and genocide. \nLearn more here.

SUMMARY:Yom HaShoah Commemoration 2025
DESCRIPTION:Register for our annual program commemorating Yom HaShoah. \nYom 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. \nThis 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. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDuring the candle-lighting ceremony six candles are lit in memory of the six million and three additional candles are lit in honor of the Veterans\, the Liberators\, and the Righteous\, those non-Jews who risked their lives to save the lives of their Jewish friends and neighbors. The candle-lighters are composed of Holocaust Survivors and/or descendants\, community members\, and lay leaders. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere are both in-person and virtual attendance options available (select the ticket reflecting your preferred attendance option when registering).
