A personalised tour of the Jewish Holocaust Centre museum
In October 2010, Nikki Horovitz and Leora Givoni arranged a visit to the Jewish Holocaust Centre for 40 of their friends – young women in their thirties and forties.
Michael Cohen, the Jewish Holocaust Centre’s Community Relations Coordinator, spoke to the group about the Centre’s education program, focusing on school groups that visit, what they see and learn, and the impact the visit has on them. Helen Mahemoff, Chairperson of the Jewish Holocaust Centre Foundation, presented an overview of the Centre – its history, programs, and the new museum. Five survivor guides then showed the group through the museum.

The group, many of whom had never visited the Centre, was very appreciative of their personalised tour. The Centre is happy to organise similar visits for other groups. Please contact Michael Cohen, Community Relations Coordinator on 9528 1985.
