Dozens of items that were part of daily life in Europe before, during and after the Holocaust – a child’s leather shoe, an accordion, a light bulb, a beer stein – form the remarkable exhibit on display from November through April at the Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center in Glen Cove, offering a glimpse into a lost world made all the more poignant for its combination of ordinariness and horror.
Titled “Objects of Witness: Testimony from Holocaust Artifacts,” this collection presents a nuanced view of a civilization as it collapsed into genocide and destruction. The items, donated to the center by Holocaust survivors, WWII veterans and their families over the past decade, encapsulate life as it was lived under the growing Nazi shadow.
The exhibit will run from November 2nd starting at noon, with a reception at 1 PM and will run until the end of April.
Hours: Monday-Friday: 9 AM-5 PM
Saturdays & Sundays: 12 Noon-4 PM
Admission: Exhibit is free, $10 donations will be accepted for adults, $5 for students and seniors.
