Curator’s Corner

As we approach International Holocaust Remembrance Day, later in January, HMTC’s museum and programming director, Dr. Thorin Tritter, talked about two photographs in our galleries taken at Auschwitz shortly after liberation by the Red Army on January 27, 1945. He discussed the images and the events that led to the liberation of the Nazi’s most notorious camp.
