Holocaust Museum LA, the first survivor-founded and oldest Holocaust museum in the United States, continues to fulfill its mission to commemorate, educate, and inspire. Its genesis dates to the 1960s, when a group of survivors met and discovered that each of them had a photograph, document, or personal item from before the war. They decided that these artifacts needed a permanent home where they could be displayed safely and in perpetuity. They also wanted a place to memorialize their loved ones who perished and help to educate the public so that no one would ever forget. Through customized tours, artifact-rich exhibitions, creative educational programs, and intergenerational conversations with survivors, the Museum teaches students and visitors to think critically about the lessons of the Holocaust and its social relevance today. Museum admission is free for all students and California residents.
3G@HMLA is raising funds to enable the Museum to continue its mission. A suggested donation of $25 will sponsor a student to participate in the Museum’s impactful educational programming.
3G@HMLA is a community for grandchildren of survivors who are helping to shape the future of Holocaust remembrance and education. Our mission is based on memory, education, community, and social action, drawing on our own personal connections as stewards of our grandparents' legacies and the rich resources and support of Holocaust Museum LA.
Our 3G@HMLA group is committed to carrying on our grandparents' stories and legacies which live in our personal histories. It is our responsibility to remember, it is our responsibility to educate, and it is our responsibility to inspire. As a 3G group, we stand for commemorating our past, changing the future, and creating a world of mutual respect. We teach how hate, discrimination, and prejudices led to one of the worst chapters in human history. The Holocaust was a Jewish tragedy, but also a tragedy for all of humanity. What we do matters, and education helps us to close the gaps that divide us.
