Learn & Explore

At the Philadelphia Holocaust Remembrance Foundation, we offer a wide range of educational opportunities to foster learning and exploration.

Our offerings include customized tours of the Memorial Plaza, professional development workshops for teachers, corporate workshops and webinars, classroom discussions, online webinars, and public events.

We understand that exploring the Holocaust and contemporary antisemitism on your own is challenging and at times uncomfortable. When we work with you, we break down those barriers together to create a safe space for learning and we create content that best fit your community’s educational goals.

To assist you in finding the content that aligns with your interests and exploration, we have categorized our resources. Please refer to the sections below to discover the resources tailored to your specific needs.
