It is getting pretty rare to have the opportunity to meet a Holocaust survivor so when I heard there was one speaking locally we made plans to attend.
We started the day attending an art exhibit done by students featuring the Holocaust. It was quite moving and taking pictures was encouraged. I had each of my older girls pick one picture that they felt was their favorite. Pictured below are the pictures they took.
In the evening we heard Holocaust survivor Fred Gross speak about his experience as a child during the Holocaust. His story was absolutely amazing and I am honored to have had the opportunity to hear him speak and to meet him. Check out his website linked above or do a search for him on YouTube to hear details of his story.
Here is a picture of a part of the program with a picture of Fred and a short bio.
