We are excited to invite you to join your 7th grader(s) for our Family Learning Program field trip to the Illinois Holocaust Museum and Education Center. The museum in Skokie is currently undergoing renovations, so we will meet at their temporary location at 360 N. State Street in River North, called Experience360.

Illinois Holocaust Museum presents Experience360 provides a panoramic view through history and truth, inviting visitors of all backgrounds to witness stories of survival, ask questions, and reflect on the past in ways that inspire empathy, respect, and hope. Featuring cutting-edge technology and immersive storytelling, Experience360 offers visitors an opportunity to engage with history in deeply personal and interactive ways. 

Join Rabbi Gellman for this amazing learning opportunity. Our 7th Grade Judaics curriculum this year focuses on Modern Jewish History, World War II and the Holocaust, and the founding of the modern State of Israel. This Family Learning Program offers a great opportunity to connect with other 7th grade parents and to engage in conversation with your child about the realities of the world. 

We hope that you will join us for this important experience. Advance registration for students and parents is required. 

If you are unable to attend, your child is still welcome to participate with the class, but they will need to be registered to attend the trip. You can indicate in your registration if you are able to drive others, or if you need a carpool for your child. This event takes the place of Religious School for 7th grade that day.
