Join The National WWII Museum and the New Orleans Jewish Community Center Holocaust Committee for an evening of remembrance and reflection to commemorate Yom HaShoah, a day dedicated to the approximately six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust.
Following a moving commemoration ceremony, Father Patrick Desbois, a Holocaust researcher and Vatican adviser on Catholic-Jewish relations, will discuss his award-winning book Holocaust by Bullets.
A reception from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. will precede the event and will include hors d'oeuvres, as well as an open bar for beer and wine. Desbois will sign copies of his book following the presentation.
For additional information, contact Maggie Hartley, EdD, Director of Public Engagement, at [email protected].
This event is made possible through the generous support of The Mark Rubin Family Endowment for Holocaust Education.
