Event Description
To commemorate Holocaust Memorial Day, we will hear the story of sculptor and Holocaust survivor Naomi Blake - a Muswell Hill resident and graduate of the Hornsey School of Art.
Born in Mukacevo, Czechoslovakia, Naomi Blake arrived in London in 1952. She survived Auschwitz, sabotaged bombs in Brahnau slave labour camp, escaped the notorious death marches and contributed to the creation of the State of Israel. Despite her survival, she always carried the memory of the 18 family members including 10 children that were murdered.
Doors open at 7pm.
Free entry.
Please book your place for this in-person talk at the Museum via Evenbrite.
