  1. “Holocaust artifacts bear witness”

  2. Washington, D.C. - The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum's ability to teach the lessons of the Holocaust to future generations relies on its collections. The museum collects artifacts from survivors and their families to add to its collections. When survivors are gone, artifacts, documents, photos and films will tell the story. The museum has been on a 20th anniversary four-city tour to engage the public and gather artifacts that tell survivors' stories in vivid, lasting and personal ways. The museum held a historic gathering of Holocaust survivors and World War II veterans in Washington for a national marking of its 20th anniversary.
