Hebrew Union College - Jewish Institute of Religion

I was invited to photograph this year’s commemoration of the International Day of Holocaust Remembrance. This event serves as a platform to illuminate the historical narrative and the profound impact of the Holocaust. It provides an opportunity for introspection and remembrance, honoring the lives lost and acknowledging the experiences of survivors. Furthermore, it underscores the paramount importance of preserving this critical historical record for future generations. The subject of this year's keynote by Dr. Spyros Orfanos was "A Holocaust Legacy: Transgenerational Transmission of Trauma."

The Hebrew Union College — Jewish Institution of Religion is a university located at 1 West 4th Street, New York, NY. It was established in 1922 as an institution of pluralistic higher Jewish learning by Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, social activist, Zionist leader, and advocate of the ‘free pulpit,’ the New York campus is a vital leadership development center for the Reform Movement, the Jewish people, and the larger world. Students from around the world pursue their studies in our campus' academic program.

This kitchen has a multitude of space, in the middle of an amazing museum, no less, but only a little demand! Come one, come all! My fellow travelers & I were treated to ziti & tuna, which is an interesting combination, yet truly delicious & generous!

Amazing experience for students. HUC educates and develops inspiring Jewish leaders.
