Americans and the Holocaust Traveling Exhibition The Carnegie Free Library of Beaver Falls is both honored and humbled to announce The Americans and the Holocaust Traveling Exhibition will make its way to our Library this spring! This is the Holocaust Memorial Museum's traveling exhibition's ONLY stop in Pennsylvania this year! The exhibit will be on display from March 17th - April 28th, during Library hours. The Library is CLOSED on Fridays & Sundays Our library has been chosen among a select group of national libraries, colleges, and universities to present this poignant exhibition from the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum. There is no charge to visit the exhibit or the lecture series. The 1,100-square-foot traveling exhibition, based on the special exhibit of the same name at the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., examines the motives, pressures, and fears that shaped Americans' responses to Nazism, war, and genocide in Europe during the 1930s and 1940s. It marks a defining moment in the history of the 20th century. Throughout its stay at the Carnegie Free Library of Beaver Falls, we will feature multiple lectures from local history and social studies experts: Dr. Barbara Burstin, University of Pittsburgh, Eric Lidji, Heinz History Center, Deborah Stueber, daughter of two Holocaust survivors, and Dr. Jeff Cole, Geneva College, to name a few.
