SUMMARY:ON-SITE BOOK & AUTHOR: “THE TATTOOED TORAH”
DESCRIPTION:Nearly four decades since its initial release\, Marvell Ginsburg’s The Tattooed Torah is widely regarded as a quintessential resource for early Holocaust education. A profound story of love\, hope\, and resilience\, The Tattooed Torah recounts the true story of a small Torah from Brno\, Czechoslovakia. This beloved illustrated book teaches the Holocaust not just as a period of destruction\, but also as an opportunity for redemption. \nGinsburg’s daughter\, Beth Kopin executive produced an animated short film adaptation of The Tattooed Torah. The adaptation is a three-generational endeavor that has also been passed down to Kopin’s son\, Brett Kopin\, who served as the film’s co-screenwriter with Marc Bennett. \nJoin us for a live reading\, Q&A\, and a short viewing of the film presented by Beth and Brett Kopin. Lois Roman\, a Trustee of the Memorial Scrolls Trust (MTS)\, will interview the Kopins and discuss the journey of the scroll that inspired The Tattooed Torah from pre-World War II through today. \nReservations required. \nMembers: Free; Non-Members: Museum Admission
