Holocaust Remembrance Day

Sunday, May 5 at 2:00 pm through 3:00 pm

The City of Berkeley, Jewish Family and Community Services East Bay, and the JCC East Bay present the 21st Annual Holocaust Remembrance Day.

This year’s program features reflections and memories from acclaimed artist, Kitty Klaidman. Her story reveals her family’s resilience and the extraordinary courage and kindness of the family that saved them.

Ethan Katz, Faculty Director, Center for Jewish Studies at UC Berkeley will also share his story about an inter-generational journey back to Europe and the importance of memory.

Included in this commemoration are comments from a teenage great grandson of a Survivor, music from renowned cello and bassoon duo Rebecca Rust and Friedrich Edelmann, and a moving candle lighting by survivors and their family members living in the Bay Area.

We join in community to honor survivors, the memory of all those who were murdered, those who resisted, and those who rescued victims of the Holocaust.

This free program will take place virtually. Registration is required.
