With so much unrest in the world, bringing our community together for this annual memorial is more important than ever. 

For six decades, Greater Philadelphia has shown up each year to say Never Again at our Holocaust Remembrance Day Ceremony to observe Yom HaShoah.

We invite you to join our 60th annual ceremony as part of this vital tradition to ensure that we Never Forget about the six million Jews who perished in the Shoah and that we continue to honor the survivors living in our communities. The ceremony will include candle lighting, music and prayers.

RSVP by Friday, May 3 at 11:59 a.m.
