Maltz Museum Student Tours FAQ
Holocaust Education: Lessons of the Holocaust
The Holocaust stands as a defining moment of the 20th century. Key concepts covered on this tour include:
The rise of modern antisemitism and history of hatred against Jews
How global economic depression, nationalism, and militarism made state-sponsored mass murder possible
The tactics and psychology of propaganda
The behavior of individuals under extreme conditions
Speak with a Survivor
Students can hear a Holocaust survivor’s personal story and ask questions, which is one of the most meaningful ways to learn about history. We recommend pairing this with your tour or you can book as a standalone experience.
Past in Progress: a Maltz Museum
Stop the Hate
Tour
This tour invites students to engage with the museum’s historical objects to better explore how communities have faced difficult moments and decisions throughout history. Using object-based inquiry and visual analysis, students will examine the causes and consequences of bias and hate, then investigate how individuals and communities have challenged them. Through interactive activities and group discussion, students will investigate how messages and actions, both large and small, can influence the way people are treated and remembered. This active learning experience encourages students to think about how individual and collective choices shape our own communities and the world.
Book a Free classroom Workshop
The Stop The Hate ® program includes the group tour free classroom workshops, and the Stop the Hate scholarship contest. Working with teaching artists, students reflect on bias they’ve experienced in their own lives and share their ideas and actions as upstanders in their community.
