Holocaust Memorial Exhibit (Oct 10-Dec 10)

Memorial Library is hosting a traveling exhibit from the US Holocaust Memorial Museum on the Nazi Persecution of Homosexuals 1933-1945.

The Gay Straight Alliance for Safe Schools and the General Library System are co-sponsoring this exhibit plus a series of related presentations and events.

The exhibit is comprised of more than 200 reproductions of photographs, documents, and artwork that examine the Nazi regime’s social and racial ideology that contributed to its persecution of the gay community.

The exhibit and events are free and open to the public. When coming to visit the exhibit, as housed in the main entrance lobby of Memorial Library (728 State Street), you will be asked to present campus ID, driver’s license or other photo ID to enter.
