Carmel invites the community to the annual Holocaust Remembrance Ceremony at noon on Friday, April 24 at the Tarkington Theater. It is free and open to the public.
This solemn event honors the millions of lives lost during the Holocaust and reaffirms a collective commitment to ensuring such atrocities never happen again.
This year’s ceremony features a keynote address by Dr. Alex Kor, a Carmel resident and the son of two Holocaust survivors, Michael and Eva Mozes Kor. Following the passing of his parents, Dr. Kor has dedicated himself to the vital mission of preserving their legacies and sharing the lessons of history with new generations.
Also at this year’s ceremony, filmmaker, composer and Hoosier Ashton Gleckman will deliver special remarks and share a trailer for his film, We Shall Not Die Now.
Guests and performers include:
- Mayor Sue Finkam
- Cantor Melissa Cohen, Congregation Beth-El Zedek
- Sadie Cohen, Carmel High School
- Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre
- Rabbi Justin Kerber, Congregation Beth Shalom Indy
