Especially, but not only, for Water Tower Students and Faculty -
HOLOCAUST DAY COMMEMORATION, YOM HASHOAH PROGRAM - MONDAY, APRIL 16 - 4 PM - LUMA
Hillel has been frequently requested to do more programming at Water Tower - and this is a very significant response to that request.
The stunning exhibit that opened yesterday - "A Blessing to One Another: Pope John Paul II and the Jewish People" - is the setting for our Yom HaShoah program. There is a Holocaust section of the exhibit, and we will be meeting there for our program/ceremony.
The Loyola Museum of Art (LUMA) is usually closed on Mondays, but is being opened for our Holocaust Commemoration Program. The doors will open at 3:30 PM, and the Museum will remain open for us until 5:30 PM, which will give you an outstanding opportunity to view the exhibit either before or after our program, which will last approximately 30 minutes.
Holocaust Commemoration Day, the 27th of the month of Nisan, is actually on Sunday, but we are doing our program on Monday.
Earlier in the day, from 11 AM-2 PM, at a table on the lower floor of 25 East Pearson, by the Cafe, Hillel will be have a special Memorial Table display with information about the Holocaust. We hope those of you who are at Water Tower on Monday will stop by the table as well as join us for the Yom HaShoah program.
