"Never
Forget" is a multimedia presentation that represents in
some small way the history of the Jewish "experience"
during the Holocaust in the many
camps.
This
exhibition must serve as a warning to the world that
we must do all we can to ensure that events such as the
Holocaust never happen
again.
"Never
Forget" is also meant to educate via several means. The
first means is visual, by presenting photographs of the
camps and its inmates. The second is auditory, by
hearing testimony of those who were fortunate to survive
the Holocaust.
The third
is by displaying a good number of postal photographs, of
postcards sent from or two many of the camps, not only
from those who worked there, but those who were also
interred there. These postcards and other postal effects
give the exhibition visitor a special look inside the
way communication was established between the world
inside the camps and those on the outside.
The Museum
wishes to thank all those institutions who permitted the
use of material from their own websites, especially the
Florence and Laurence Spungen Family Foundation, who are
the possessors of this intriguing postal collection. To

Be sure to
visit the Museum's new exhibition on the Jewish ghettos
of Europe, which also displays pieces from the Spungen
collection.
