Description: |
Survivor Aron's Story A Professional Development Workshop for Educators at Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau County on Long Island, New York.
The Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau County (HMTC) presents a professional development workshop for educators, "Survivor: Aron's Story." Author Alex Teplish immerses the audience into his grandfather's memoir, utilizing Shoah Foundation video testimony, artwork from the book, as well as historical music and imagery. Humanities and art educators are encouraged to join us for this engaging presentation.
The first part of "Survivor - Aron's Story" shares Aron's experience of living in Odessa, Ukraine and his survival as a teenager under the Romanian/Nazi occupation during WWII. Aron's story, visually depicted in the graphic novel form, allows readers to experience the events first hand, through the eyes of young Aron himself, while learning about one of the least documented episodes of the Holocaust. |
