On the eve of Holocaust Remembrance Day, join the Toronto Holocaust Museum – together with Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center, Canadian Society for Yad Vashem, the Azrieli Foundation, Facing History and Ourselves, and March of the Living Canada – as we co-present the annual Yom Hashoah commemoration for the entire community.
Explore Holocaust remembrance in a post-October 7 world with keynote speaker Yoni Berrous, International School for Holocaust Studies at Yad Vashem. Together, we will reflect on the life, spirituality, and vibrancy of prewar Jewish communities through an original short film. The program will also include a candle-lighting ceremony to pay tribute to the victims of the Shoah and to honour the survivors. We are grateful to be hosting the program at Beth Emeth Synagogue, with a livestream for those watching from home.
