Permanent Exhibit:
FInding Light in the Darkness
We invite you to tour the Henry and Sandra Friedman Holocaust Center for Humanity, a museum and educational center dedicated to connecting the lessons of the Holocaust to our world today. Through stories and artifacts of local Holocaust survivors, the museum's core exhibit engages visitors in the history of the Holocaust and challenges them to consider how each person's actions make a difference.

Upcoming Temporary Exhibit:
Fourth-Grade Project
On View: January 28 – May 15, 2027
Acclaimed artist Judy Gelles interviewed and photographed more than 300 fourth-grade students from a wide range of economic and cultural backgrounds across the world. She asked all of the students the same three questions: Who do you live with? What do you wish for? What do you worry about? Told in their own words, these children’s stories touch on some of our most pressing social issues and common human experiences.
