About this event
On November 9th and 10th of 1938, the lives of German and Austrian Jews were indescribably altered as members of the SS, SA, Hitler Youth, alongside everyday citizens, took to the streets to destroy Jewish homes, businesses, and synagogues. 1,000+ synagogues were burned as thousands of Jewish men were arrested and imprisoned at concentration camps. On the 88th anniversary of Kristallnacht or "The Night of Broken Glass", we look to commemorate the lives that were lost or forever changed by the events of November 9th, 1938. Please join us as we gather for a meaningful and reflective commemorative event, including a candle lighting ceremony. Light refreshments will be provided. JOIN US
