For German artist Gunter Demnig, Yom HaShoah isn't confined to a single day of remembrance. For almost 30 years, 300 days of the year, he has has been committed to making the invisible victims of the Holocaust visible.

In cities throughout Europe he has installed more than 70,000 Stolpersteine, or stumbling stones, in front the former homes of victims of the Holocaust. These concrete squares, measuring four inches in diameter are topped by brass plaques inscribed with the words, "Here Lived", followed by the victim's name, date of birth, and fate: internment, suicide, exile, or deportation and murder. Together, these mini-memorials constitute the largest decentralized monument in the world.

Join us on April 7th at 7pm for our Yom HaShoah program, Stolpersteine: Remembering Their Names. TCS/NT member Linda Ziskind will talk about the history and impact of this extraordinary project, as well as her personal experience, last February, of attending a ceremony in Rohrbach, Germany, when Mr. Demnig installed five Stolpersteine in front of her own family's former home.
