The Holocaust Exhibition is a rich learning resource for students in Years 9–13. We currently receive visits from groups studying the Holocaust in a wide range of subject areas including History, Citizenship, Religious Studies, English, Philosophy, Geography and Science. Due to the nature of the subject and the material on display, we do not accept bookings for groups younger than Year 9.
You should allow two-and-a-half hours for your visit to The Holocaust Exhibition. This will include an orientation session to help prepare and focus your students, a visit to the galleries – using one of a range of audio tours focused on specific learning needs – and a feedback session to help your students reflect on what they have learned.
Unspeakable: The Artist as Witness to the Holocaust
Interactive gallery tours can be arranged for students to explore the different ways artists have tried to come to terms with the Holocaust – a difficult and in many ways unspeakable episode in twentieth century history. The exhibition looks at work by official war artists such as Leslie Cole and Doris Zinkeissen, contemporary artists such as Paul Ryan and Jenny Stolzenberg and Holocaust survivors such as Roman Halter and Edith Birkin.
