A few words about the two Photo Exhibitions: Spots of Light: To be a Woman in the Holocaust The exhibition presents the female dimension of life during the Holocaust, highlighting the attitude of Jewish women towards the tragic and inhumane situations they faced, their efforts to survive, their daily life, their dilemmas. Motherhood, Care and Resistance are just some of the areas in which women had an active role in the Holocaust. The aim of the exhibition is to inform, raise awareness and remind, that the Holocaust should not be repeated, but neither should it be erased from the collective memory. Shoah: How was it Humanly Possible? (Shoah: How was it Humanly Possible?) The exhibition refers to the historical events of the Holocaust, starting with the life of the Jews before the Holocaust and ending with their liberation from the concentration camps. The exhibition is aimed at students aged 14-18, who will explore the various aspects of the Holocaust with the help of specially designed museum-pedagogical material. The aim of the exhibition is to inform and raise awareness so that tragic situations of the past, where man reaches absolute evil, as a perpetrator and to the ultimate limit of human endurance, as a victim, are not repeated.
