Yom Hashoah V’Hagvurah commemoration
2 hours
The Jewish Federation of Cleveland will host its annual Yom Hashoah V’Hagvurah commemoration from 6:30 to 8 p.m. April 13 at Congregation Mishkan Or at 26000 Shaker Blvd. in Beachwood.
This year’s theme, “From Trauma to Transformation: The Enduring Impact of the Holocaust Across Generations,” will explore the Holocaust’s far-reaching effects across four interconnected spheres – individual, family, community and global. The theme takes a broader look at topics that were explored last year, which related to deep dives on family history.
“This year, we wanted to zoom out and explore how those experiences shaped a broader sense of community and contributed to a sense of gratitude and responsibility amongst the Jewish community,” Jordan Walman, co-chair of the event, told the Cleveland Jewish News.
The event is free, but registration is required in advance at bit.ly/4m0DEgr.
