SPECIAL EVENT
Mobile Exhibit and Original Artifact Collection
Tuesday, February 11 | 10:30am-5:00pm
JFCS | 8540 Baycenter Rd
HATE ENDS NOW is an immersive, traveling exhibit that educates audiences about the Holocaust, and the dangers of antisemitism, intolerance, and racism.
Housed inside an exact replica of a WW2 era cattle car just like the ones used to transport Jews and other targeted groups to concentration and death camps during the Holocaust is a powerful 360 degree immersive presentation.
Accompanying the exhibit is a rare collection of original Holocaust artifacts.
This unique, out of the box and out of the classroom exhibit is an accessible, impactful, and unforgettable educational experience. It is perfectly suited to the next generation of audiences in a way that textbooks and traditional museums are not.
The cattle car presentation is done in 30-minute increments and space is limited, so reserve a time by clicking the button below …

The Hate Ends Now traveling exhibit’s time in Jacksonville is being generously funded by the Henri Landwirth Family Advised Fund and the Henri Landwirth and Family Advised Fund.
The Frisch Family Holocaust Memorial Gallery
Commemorating both unfathomable loss and the indomitable will to survive, The Frisch Family Holocaust Memorial Gallery is the first space of its kind between Atlanta and Central Florida.
The memorial contains a two-panel granite installation designed by Holocaust survivor Morris Bendit to remember those Jews who perished. It consists of an etched mural which depicts a map and information about the human and geographic scope of the genocide.
The gallery features exhibitions, public programs and educational tours exploring themes of human rights, individual courage, and the search for peace. The changing art on the walls serves as a platform for reflection and conversation, and the entire space is dedicated to the power of art: as a tool for remembering and as a channel for speaking truth, building understanding, and telling stories that need to be told.
THE GALLERY IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
Monday – Friday | 8:30am – 5:00pm

“My vision for creating a Holocaust Memorial comes from the love and dedication I feel for the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust who have no resting place. A monument made from stone symbolizes the strength we have as a community to never forget them and to teach our future generations how important our history is. We must never forget.”
~ Morris Bendit
