Oct 14 - Mar 10
This permanent exhibition presents the history of the Holocaust through artifacts and stories of Atlanta area Holocaust Survivors.
The story of Jewish Atlanta began as it did in many other Southern towns, but its narrative would take dramatic turns as Atlanta became a stage for regional, national, and international events over the next 170 years.
This Lunchtime Culture event is Presented by the Breman Museum at the Alliance Theatre. Each lunchtime culture event pairs two midtown Atlanta sites for a conversation, performance, or tour experience from a fresh perspective. Programs begin at 12 noon, are FREE, and last approximately 30 minutes (with time to explore the venue after the program). Lunch is not included with program.

Do you have documents, photographs, or family heirlooms stashed away in shoe boxes in the attic, basement, or closet? Then there is no time like the present to organize and preserve those items for future generations to learn their family heritage. Join the Jewish Genealogical Society of Georgia as our featured speaker, Jeremy Katz, Archives Director at the Breman Museum, conducts a workshop on preserving your family history. Participants are encouraged to bring items from their family collections they wish to be examined for preservation.
