WITNESS PROJECT
In partnership with UJA-Federation of New York, students meet with Holocaust survivors for education and to work on a performance or visual arts program. Together, the students and survivors explore the issues of loss and resilience during the Holocaust. This program keeps the memory of the Holocaust alive in the hearts and minds of the next generation and helps the survivors come to terms with their past. Witness Project participants are selected during the summer, for more information, contact witness@ujany.org.
Meets select Thursdays, 6:30-8 pm
