Toronto Holocaust Museum Visit
Sunday, September 10, 2023 at 2:00pm
Location - Prosserman Jewish Community Centre, 4588 Bathurst St, North York
The Toronto Holocaust Museum inspires visitors to make connections between history, world events, and contemporary Canadian life. Encompassing 10,000 square feet of state-of-the-art gallery and learning spaces, the Museum houses four themed galleries, complimented by a learning lab, as well as three immersive film experiences.
The Toronto Police Service’s annual hate crime report revealed that, although the Jewish community represents just 3.4 % of Toronto’s total population, it was victimized in 26% of the reported hate crimes in 2022. The Toronto Holocaust Museum hopes to bridge the lessons of society’s violent histories with modern manifestations of hate to ensure that antisemitism and all forms of hate are confronted, so that ‘Never Again’ truly means ‘Never Again’.
