Annual Gathering of Remembrance
Sunday, April 11 | 2 PM ET online
Every year, at the Museum of Jewish Heritage’s Annual Gathering of Remembrance, we bring together thousands as a community to say: we will never forget. The Jewish people persist, and we will not allow the memory of millions to pass into stony silence. We owe it to our people, ourselves, and our children to insist that when we mourn those who were murdered and comfort those who suffered, we tell their stories with the utmost respect for their human dignity. It is a powerful answer to the Nazis’ thwarted ambition.
Please join us Sunday for this year’s virtual gathering in observance of Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day). Featured speakers include Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff; U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer; Elisha Wiesel, son of the late Nobel Prize winner Elie Wiesel; Dr. Ruth K. Westheimer, Museum Trustee and Holocaust survivor; and more.
We hope that you will consider supporting this year’s Annual Gathering by registering and making a donation of any level. Your support is critical to our exhibitions, student field trips, and other educational programs. Help us ensure that future generations never forget the history and lessons of the Holocaust.
Thank you for being a part of our community as we honor the memory of those we have lost, cherish the survivors still with us, and invite people from New York City and around the world to learn our history.
