The University of Greenwich is marking the annual International Holocaust Memorial Day (IHMD), which takes place each year on 27 January, with a temporary exhibition called “International Holocaust Memorial Day – For a Better Future”.
Exhibition Launch event
Date: Tuesday 28 January 2025
Time: 5:30pm – 8pm
Location: Heritage Gallery and QA080, Queen Anne Court, Greenwich Campus
At the exhibition launch, you will meet Calum Isaacs, who will share the astonishing Holocaust survival story of his grandmother, Mirjam Finkelstein. He learned from her the importance of maintaining a tolerant society by keeping alive stories like hers.
You will also hear reflections by Daniel Randall, who has written extensively on antisemitism and how it relates to other forms of racism and bigotry.
Guests will be invited to visit the exhibition before and after the launch, to share their own responses to the content and will also have the opportunity to network with the university’s partners, local schools, and the contributors to this project.
