SCHOOL Tours The VHEC mounts 1-2 teaching exhibits annually. Ninety-minute school tours consist of a docent-led overview of the exhibit, as well as a workshop or Holocaust survivor speaker. We welcome visits from school, community and special interest groups. Our school programs are recommended for students in grades 6 to 12, with special arrangements possible for grade 5 groups. Visits can be tailored for post-secondary groups. Please visit the Current Exhibit page for information about the current school program. Cost: $100 per group of 30 students, which includes teaching materials with pre and post-visit support material. Three days cancellation notice is required, or the full fee may be charged |

SYMPOSIA ON THE HOLOCAUST Symposia on the Holocaust are held each May at the University of British Columbia, and throughout the year in school districts across British Columbia. At the day-long event at UBC, over a thousand senior high school students meet with survivor speakers in small group sessions, view films and hear from historians, educators and anti-racism speakers. The VHEC has also recently launched half-day Symposia in school districts across British Columbia. |
