Holocaust Education

The Holocaust Education series, inspired by Rosie & Irving Guttman, encompasses both survivor and second-generation descendant programming for years. The series presents conversations through an educational programming format featuring survivors, liberators and other personal narratives from World War II and the Holocaust. Each seminar includes an oral history and occasionally offers a Q&A and panel discussion.

Additionally, each program is archived within our digital library and housed on the Arizona Department of Education’s Holocaust and Genocide toolkit recommended resources for Arizona teachers. These programs are free to students and educators.
