Curator’s Corner

Our Museum and Programming Director, Dr. Thorin Tritter, discussed a child’s shoe in our collection that was found on the grounds of Auschwitz-Birkenau. The presentation included information about Jackie Handeli, a Survivor who donated the shoe to HMTC, along with two other shoes that went to sister organizations.

If you missed this program, you can watch it now on Youtube:

HMTC needs your help now more than ever. Your donation will support HMTC’s virtual programming for students and adults. Help us continue to be able to provide Holocaust and Tolerance Education programs to schools and public programs for the community.
