Zikaron BaSalon, meaning “Remembering in the Living Room” in Hebrew, is an initiative which started in 2011 with the goal to commemorate the Holocaust and its victims on a more personal and individualistic level. Focusing much more on survivors sharing their unique experiences and promoting conversation between survivors and those listening, Zikaron BaSalon distinguishes itself from other Holocaust Education initiatives by focusing entirely on the human impact that can only be shared in a smaller, well-connected setting, with Holocaust survivors and their descendants.
Join Holocaust Museum Houston for our annual Zikaron BaSalon conversation, as a small panel including Holocaust Survivor Ruth Steinfeld, 2nd generation Alberta Totz, and 3rd generation Lauren Rubenstein discuss their experiences, and the importance of preserving the memory of the Holocaust L’dor v’dor (From Generation to Generation). This event will be happening alongside the city-wide Zikaron BaSalon which will be presented by the Jewish Federation of Greater Houston.
