 HISTORY OF THE HOLOCAUST

PLEASE JOIN US FOR THE OCTOBER 11, 2012, 4:00PM OPENING OF "THE COURAGE TO REMEMBER", AN EDUCATIONAL EXHIBIT ON THE HISTORY OF THE HOLOCAUST.

THIS IS A FREE EVENT & OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

Please join civic, educational, business, government, religious, law enforcement and community leaders as the Foundation For California and Valencia College present "The Courage To Remember" at Valencia College's Black Box Theater in Orlando.  The opening ceremony for this exhibit will be held in the Atrium, adjacent to the Black Box Theater in Building 3 of Valencia College's East Campus on October 11 at 4:00PM.

 ABOUT THIS EXHIBIT, "THE COURAGE TO REMEMBER": "The Courage To Remember" is a 42 panel educational exhibit on the Holocaust of 1933-1945.  With nearly 200 original photographs, many never seen before by the general public, "The Courage To Remember" offers a powerful, compelling insight into the Holocaust.

The crimes of the Nazis during the Holocaust serve as a dark chapter of the 20th century.  Yet, the causes of the Holocaust remain with us today.

Man's flawed nature, racism and the complacency of ordinary people in the persecution of others persist.  Therefore the need for this exhibit.  Individual citizens must have the courage to remember, educate themselves of this tragedy and commit to prevent such crimes from happening again. 

This exhibit is produced by the Simon Wiesenthal Center and brought to you by the Foundation For California and Valencia College.  It will be shown at Valencia College's Black Box Theater (East Campus, Building 3) from October 11-18, 2012. (Mon.-Fri.: 7:00am-10:30pm; Sat. 7:00am-4:30pm; Sun: closed). On October 19, the exhibit will display from 7:00-11:00am. 

The October 11, 4:00PM opening ceremony is a free event and open to the public.
