Museum Closed

The US Holocaust Memorial Museum is closed on Sunday, January 25, and Monday, January 26, 2026, due to inclement weather.

Program Offerings

The Regional Programming Initiative offers panel discussions, pedagogical roundtables, and orientations to build greater Holocaust knowledge on campuses. These programs engage campus communities with Holocaust studies through moderated discussions and open conversations on strategies for teaching challenging history in the college classroom.

Panel Discussion

Panel discussions bring together Museum staff, our network of affiliated experts, and local scholars, to engage in thought-provoking conversations about the intersections and divergences in their approaches to studying the Holocaust. These programs provide key opportunities for interdisciplinary scholars to learn about antisemitism, persecution, removal, and “othering” that affected Jews and groups targeted for destruction or decimation for racial, ethnic, and national reasons by the Nazis and their collaborators.
