Delray Beach’s Public Library will house “Americans and the Holocaust,” a traveling exhibition and educational initiative from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and the American Library Association, from October 6 to November 17, 2021.  The exhibition examines the motives, pressures, and fears that shaped Americans’ responses to Nazism, World War II, and genocide in Europe during the 1930s and 1940s.

“Americans and the Holocaust” is based on the special exhibition of the same name which opened in April of 2018, at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C. The exhibition will travel to libraries across the country from 2021 to 2023.

The exhibition and following programming are free and open to the public, but registration is required.  For more information about Americans and the Holocaust and related programming at Delray Beach Public Library, click here or email Kae Jonsons ([email protected]).
