Join us for a half day workshop that explores the life, artwork, and legacy of Holocaust survivor and artist, Samuel Bak.

Through interactive tours of the Holocaust Gallery and Samuel Bak Gallery and Learning Center, participants will examine the role and meaning of artwork created during and after the Holocaust. Educators will learn about the life of prolific artist and Holocaust survivor, Samuel Bak, and consider the historical legacies of the Holocaust through a survey of his work. Educators will receive instructional strategies and classroom activities to support the integration of Bak’s artwork in the classroom. Participants will also learn more about HMH’s free education programs and resources designed for K-12 classrooms.

At the conclusion of the workshop, educators will receive 4 CPE and 3 GT hours for their participation in the program. A certificate of completion will be sent via email following the workshop.
