Please join the Peabody Institute Library and the Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Salem State University for an evening of reflection and reminiscences as we remember the life and work of longtime Peabody resident Sonia Schreiber Weitz.

For more than thirty years, Sonia Schreiber Weitz worked to preserve the memory of the Holocaust, and educate by telling her story and encouraging other survivors to do the same. Through her work with the Holocaust Center Boston North, which she founded with Harriet Tarnor Wacks, Sonia gave voice to the voiceless and touched the lives of countless students, teachers, and individuals across the North Shore. PIL had the privilege of hosting the Holocaust Center Boston North for about 10 years of it's life, and we are honored to have them back for this presentation.

Thanks to our partnership with CHGS at Salem State, we will also have copies of Sonia’s work, manuscripts, papers, and memorabilia on display around the library the week preceding the program, and in the Sutton Room the night of the program.

This event is free and open to the public. Registration is required.
