COURAGE TO ACT AT JEWISH HERITAGE MUSEUM
Courage to Act: Rescue in Denmark is the Museum of Jewish Heritage’s first exhibition for visitors ages 9 and up. The exhibition tells the remarkable story of the rescue of the Danish Jews during the Holocaust. Together, Jewish and non-Jewish neighbors of all ages mobilized to create one of the most effective — and exceptional — examples of mass resistance and escape in modern history. Despite the enormous risk, ordinary citizens united against Nazism to save nearly 95% of Denmark’s Jewish population. Get timed tickets here.
