We heard from some of you, that you would have loved to come to our program with VT Holocaust Memorial speakers, but for one reason or another, weren't able to make it. 

Thankfully, our friends at Green Mountain Public Access were able to come to the program and film it. 

Please enjoy this informative, inspirational and moving program.

If you would like to decorate a leaf for the VTHM Leaf Project, please stop by the Library where we have materials and information ready for you.  We're collecting them too, so if you decorate a leaf at home, please feel welcome to drop it off here and we'll deliver them to VTHM.
