Please join the Holocaust Memorial Trust, in partnership with the National Holocaust Centre and Museum (NHCM) and the Jewish Museum of Greece (JMG) for the launch of the ORDINARY OBJECTS, EXTRAORDINARY JOURNEYS website.

Attendees will explore this immersive and innovative website, which maps previously unknown journeys of men, women and young people affected during the Holocaust.

This unique experience follows individuals’ journeys via an interactive map and through artefacts belonging to them, casting a light on lesser-known aspects of the Holocaust. Ideas will be shared on how you can use this website in your relevant settings.

Following on, as we commemorate Refugee Week 2022, you will hear from Holocaust survivor John Hadju in conversation with a special guest, who will explore refugee experiences past and present and the role and the relevance of 'ordinary objects'.
