EVERYDAY OBJECTS: Artifacts from Washington State Holocaust Survivors

A poster series that promotes learning about the Holocaust through primary sources


"This series was perfect! Everyone has a bowl or a blanket…my students could connect with the objects and consequently connect with the individual stories."  - Kirstin J., Teacher at Nooksack Valley High School

Everyday Objects consists of a set of twelve 8.5 x 11 double-sided posters. Each poster features an artifact and the story of either the object or the person who obtained the object. The set is ideal for use in classrooms as an activity or display.
