Holocaust Museum Houston

Join us in July for a free film screening and a lecture from antisemitism expert Dr. David Rich. Learn more: hmh.org/events/ Public programs at Holocaust Museum Houston are presented by @memorialhermann.

The Museum is dedicated to teaching the dangers of hatred, prejudice and apathy. For this reason, admission is always free for Thursdays from 2-5 pm.

Join us on June 26 for a film screening of "Sh’ma: A Story of Survival," a dance film that chronicles the journey of the director’s mother from school days to deportation, concentration camp to liberation, and finally immigration to the U.S. RSVP: hmh.org/Shma

Please join us in wishing Holocaust Survivor Bill Orlin Happy Birthday! Bill and his family lived on the run from 1939 to 1945. Today, he speaks and volunteers regularly at the Museum.

May the memories of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim be for a blessing—and may their loss strengthen our collective resolve to fight hatred, apathy, and antisemitism in all its forms.

Antisemitism is not just a Jewish problem. When Jews are targeted - it harms all of society. It is time for all of us, not the Jewish people alone, to work to reduce and prevent antisemitic acts.

We are devastated and heartbroken by the horrific and targeted murder of two Israeli Embassy staff members outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington D.C.
