San Diego History Center
All Ages
Free

Join the Women’s Museum of California and the San Diego History Center on April 13 at 6 p.m. for a special presentation to commemorate Holocaust Remembrance Day (Yom Hashoah) and honor the survivors by keeping their stories alive.

Sandra Scheller, the daughter of Holocaust survivors, will share her family’s story as well as the stories of women that survived the Holocaust and thrived in San Diego County.

Her unique presentation includes artifacts from the Holocaust including the yellow star and dress that was worn by her Grandmother in Auschwitz. Through artifacts and personal experiences, Sandra shares what life was like for her mother from 1941 when she entered Theresienstadt until 1945 when her mother was liberated. Photos included in this presentation were saved by a non-Jewish relative.
