2024 Holocaust Remembrance Event

May 8 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

The annual Holocaust Remembrance Event presented by The Greater Holyoke Council for Human Understanding will be held on Wednesday, May 8, 2024, 5:30-7:00pm at the Holyoke Council on Aging, 291 Pine Street, Holyoke.

Come join us for a meaningful event dedicated to remembering the Holocaust. The Greater Holyoke Council for Human Understanding invites you to a special gathering at the Holyoke Council on Aging & Senior Center. Let’s honor the memory of those affected by this tragic event and reflect on the importance of tolerance and understanding in our community. This is a yearly tradition created by founding members of the CHU, Dolores Stein & Sue Ellen Panitch and we continue in their memory.

The event will include the Holyoke High School Madrigals, conducted by Mark Todd, a short documentary, the candle lighting ceremony, and a reading of the Kaddish. Light refreshments will be provided.

The CHU would also like to thank the Holyoke Council on Aging for supporting this event.

The event is free to the public.  However, good will offerings are gratefully accepted to help us continue our work within the greater Holyoke communities.

We hope to see you there in support of community and understanding.
