US Holocaust Memorial Museum offering seminar in Seattle

The Holocaust Center is partnering with the US Holocaust Memorial Museum to bring to Seattle this incredible opportunity for educators. Would you please consider passing this information along to the educators in the Archdiocese or to others who might be interested? We want to make sure that all of those teachers who might benefit from this free seminar have the opportunity to attend. (We’ll be giving away lots of free resources that day as well!) Thank you!
