Kristallnacht display

St Austin Parish in Austin will exhibit Kristallnacht in a museum setting from Nov. 16-18 in Newman Hall. This is the 80th anniversary of Kristallnacht (The Breaking of the Glass) when the Nazi’s pillaged and burnt Jewish books, businesses and homes. This was the beginning of the Nazi Holocaust campaign to rid the nation of Jewish people through starvation, prisoner camps and gas chambers. We will have docents to help you view the exhibit as well as having video coverage of that night, photographs, artifacts and religious items from the Jewish, Christian and Muslim faiths. Schools are welcome to bring their classes for this historic commemoration of this event. For more information, contact Pat Macy at pmacy@staustin.org or Lynn Hayden at lynnhayden2@sbcglobal.net
