Families, 

The Warsaw Community Public Library is hosting a powerful traveling exhibition, Americans and the Holocaust, from June 20 through July 24.

This exhibit explores how Americans responded to Nazism, war and genocide in Europe during the 1930s and 1940s. It invites visitors to consider important questions like what Americans knew at the time and what more could have been done, while also sharing stories of individuals who took courageous action to help others.

This is a meaningful opportunity for students and families to engage with history, reflect on important lessons and connect those lessons to today’s world.
