International Holocaust Remembrance Day: Free Museum Admission for Students
On January 25 and 26, the Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum is opening their doors for free for students in commemoration of the 80th anniversary of Auschwitz for International Holocaust Remembrance Day on January 27. Held every year on the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz in 1945, International Holocaust Remembrance Day allows us to reflect upon the profound tragedy of the Holocaust while coming together to share a moment of peace and hope for the future.
On Sunday, January 26 this year’s commemoration will feature a screening of Defiant Requiem, a poignant documentary that tells the remarkable story of a group of Jewish prisoners who, despite the horrors of the Holocaust, found hope and resilience through the transformative power of music. Holocaust historian Alexandra Zapruder will join us to share insights into the enduring power of art and the human spirit in the face of adversity.
The Museum is free for those under 18 and students with valid IDs all weekend. Advance registration is not required, but is recommended.
