The Holocaust Center of Pittsburgh is proud to host the exhibit “Stitching History from the Holocaust”, on loan from the Jewish Museum Milwaukee. This exhibit features reconstructed dress patterns from Hedy Strnad, a woman whose talent was tragically cut short by the Holocaust. Joining us will be Helen Epstein, a journalist and author of Children of the Holocaust and Where She Came From: A Daughter’s Search for her Mother’s History, who will talk about Jewish women in the fashion industry. $10 registration; free for survivors and students (with valid ID). Learn more and register!
