Yom HaShoah, or Holocaust Remembrance Day, commemorates the lives and heroism of Jewish people who died in the Holocaust. Each spring, the community comes together to commemorate the six million Jews who perished in the Shoah.

This year, Yom HaShoah starts on the evening of April 13 and continues to the evening of April 14.

On April 14, the Jewish Federation of Winnipeg will hold the Annual Public Holocaust Commemoration from 11:45 am to 12:45 pm. All are welcome to attend. Register for the commemoration event here.

RRC Polytech will lower its flags in observance of Yom HaShoah.
