We Who Survived
A Portrait Gallery
Situated along the Herman Berenblum Promenade is We Who Survived, a photographic tribute to the members of the Sarah and Chaim Neuberger Holocaust Education Centre survivor speakers' bureau. Accompanying each contemporary portrait by photographer Leib Kopman is an autobiographical sketch reflecting on a life lived before, during and after the Holocaust. Together they affirm the importance of bearing witness and passing the torch of remembrance. Sharing their personal stories of survival, grief, and ultimately renewal with thousands of students and members of the public, these remarkable individuals have informed and inspired generations.
The portrait gallery is open year round.
