SUMMARY:3rd Fridays Free Admission Museum Night
DESCRIPTION:Free Admission Museum Nights take place every third Friday of each month from 5 pm to 8 pm! The tour will start at 6 PM on time.

SUMMARY:Divine Gardens
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the Opening of DIVINE GARDENS\, an evocative art exhibit featuring the captivating works of Volodymyr Podlevsky and Svitlana Moiseieva from Kyiv\, Ukraine.\nThe paintings of Podlevsky and Moiseieva transport viewers into a realm where the material and spiritual coexist harmoniously. Their artwork depicts divine gardens filled with vibrant water\, lush plants\, towering trees\, and lively animals. Within this serene landscape\, angels and archangels serve as guardians\, fostering an atmosphere of protection and peace.\nAt the exhibit’s heart is the profound imagery of a woman-mother\, giving birth to angelic children who play joyfully among God’s creatures in a blooming paradise. This narrative invites reflection on the interconnectedness of life\, love\, and the divine.

SUMMARY:Can the Dead Weep for the Dead? Zalmen Gradowski and the Theology of the Shoah
DESCRIPTION:Date: October 20\, 2024 | 2:30pm CDT \nLocation: 9603 Woods Drive\, Skokie\, IL 60077 \n  \n\nOn October 7\, 1944\, a group of Jewish prisoners in Auschwitz obtained explosives and rebelled against their Nazi murderers. It was a desperate yet brave uprising that resulted in the death of more than 400 prisoners by day’s end\, including Zalmen Gradowski\, the author of The Last Consolation Vanished: The Testimony of a Sonderkommando in Auschwitz. \nWritten in Yiddish and buried in the ashes near Crematorium III\, Gradowski’s testimony documented the horrors of being a Jewish prisoner with the unthinkable task of ushering other Jewish deportees into the gas chambers\, removing their bodies\, and salvaging any valuables. \nNow\, for the first time\, Gradkowski’s memoir has been published in English. Join us for a powerful presentation and discussion about the life and work of Gradowski with the book’s co-editor\, distinguished professor at the University of Chicago\, Arnold Davidson. \nBooks will be available for purchase at the program. \nFree to the public. Reservations required. \n\nReserve my spot\n\n

SUMMARY:Virtual Lunch & Learn: Otto Weidt Workshop for the Blind: Resistance and Rescue in Nazi Berlin
DESCRIPTION:Date: October 16\, 2024 | 12:00pm CDT \nLocation: Online \n  \n\nThe experience of blind people under Nazism is an important – though often overlooked – part of Holocaust history. In honor of Blindness Awareness Month\, join us for a special virtual program presented by Illinois Holocaust Museum’s Director of Education\, Leah Rauch\, that will highlight the profound Upstanderism that one member of the blind community contributed in resistance to the Nazi regime. \nOtto Weidt’s Workshop was a small workshop that produced brushes and brooms in Nazi Berlin. Under the guise of making products essential to the war effort\, Weidt\, who was blind himself\, employed Jewish workers who were mainly blind\, visually impaired\, and hearing impaired. The workshop not only provided a source of income and protection from deadly forced labor assignments\, but once deportations began\, Weidt secured false papers\, food\, and hiding places for those selected for deportation – including a hidden room in the workshop itself. \nWeidt was not able to save everyone from deportation\, but never stopped trying to save lives\, including an attempt to secure the release of one of his employees from a concentration camp. \nFree to the public. Reservations required. \n\nReserve my spot\n\n
