Description

Remembrance in the Living Room

Join us to connect with local Holocaust survivors during our virtual Zikaron BaSalon event.

Jewish Clevelanders in their 20s, 30s, and 40s are invited to join us in small breakout rooms on Zoom to meet a Holocaust survivor. Together, we will listen to their stories and engage in moving conversations about the importance of keeping the memory of the Holocaust alive.

ABOUT ZIKARON BASALON: Translated literally into “remembrance in the living room” from Hebrew, Zikaron BaSalon is an annual event which takes place on Israeli Holocaust Memorial Day. The idea was born from the understanding that the connection between us – third generation descendants of the Holocaust survivors – and the memories of the Holocaust, has significantly deteriorated. To date, 1.5 million people have chosen to commemorate Yom Hashoah by attending a Zikaron BaSalon in their local community. The event began in 2011 in Israel but today has turned into a worldwide tradition with over 40 participating locations across the globe.
