» Zachor Holocaust Center will open May 5 at AJCC Lola Lansky, a Holocaust survivor, shows Concentration Camp uniform. I he Zachor H olocaust Center of the Atlanta Jewish Federation, which will open to the public on Monday, May 5, is the fulfillment of a dream long held by the Atlanta Jewish community. Its realization is lar gely due to the cooperative spirit which exists between Hemshech Organization of Survivors from Nazism; Children of Holocaust Sur vivors; and the Federation. The permanent exhibit is lo cated on the lower level of the Atlanta Jewish Community Cen ter Peachtree facility. The display is a chronological history of the Holocaust, beginning with scenes from Jev/ish life before the war, depicted through personal photo graphs of survivors. The Nazi rise to power is documented through violent actions including Kristall- nacht and roundups ol Jews. The Ghetto experience, life in the Con centration Camps, and the Final Solution mark the years of the war. At the end of the exhibit is the Hall of Survivors, a celebration of the survival of individuals who now make their homes in Atlanta. Unique highlights of the Zachor Center include a facsimile of a Ghetto Wall, a Czechoslavakian “Westminster Torah," personal mem orabilia salvaged from Europe and documentation of resistance efforts. An area within the exhibit has been reserved for rotating exhibits. “In My Lifetime,” a series of etchings relating to the Holocaust by Dr. David Crown, will be on display for several weeks, on loan from the artist. Dr. Crown pursued his artistic interests while practic ing internal medicine. While his work covers a wide range of sub jects, he has chosen to express his understanding of the events which took place during World War II through this series of etchings. Dr. Crown was born in London, Eng land, in 1924, and lived there until 1948 when he moved to the United States. In 1982, he left the medical field to devote all of his time to his artistic endeavors. The creation of the Zachor Holo caust Center was made possible by the hard work and dedication of a number of individuals. The design of the physical space and perman ent exhibit of the Zachor Center was created by Benjamin Hirsch and Associates, Architects and Planners. Renovation of the area was implemented by Metro Devel opment Corporation. Judy Merlin has been responsible for planning and coordinating the physical ex hibit and Saba Silverman is respon sible for staffing the facility. Elliott Cohen is chairman of the Zachor Steering Committee. For more information about the Zachor Holocaust Center and volun teer opportunities call Jane Leavey at the Federation, 873-1661.
