Yom HaShoah, also known as Holocaust Remembrance Day, is a solemn day of reflection observed each spring to honor the memory of the six million Jews murdered during the Holocaust, as well as the millions of other victims of Nazi persecution. The date follows the Hebrew calendar and marks the anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising and symbolizing Jewish resistance in the face of annihilation. Each year, the Alabama Holocaust Education Center commemorates Yom HaShoah with a powerful public program that centers on personal testimony. The event always includes descendants of Alabama Holocaust Survivors who share deeply moving stories that preserve memory and inspire future generations. These first-person narratives offer a rare and intimate window into the lived experiences of courage, survival, and loss. Stories of liberation, resistance and rescue are also featured. Through music, historical reflection, and storytelling, AHEC’s Yom HaShoah Commemoration brings our community together to remember, to educate, and to affirm our shared responsibility to stand against antisemitism, hatred, and indifference in all its forms.

The Jewish Food and Culture Fest is one of B’ham’s favorite outdoor food events. In fact, the event has been declared “the best one-day event the Jewish community has put on in Birmingham. Ever.” Plan now to attend… but be patient because it will take us a while to lovingly prepare all of your favorite foods from recipes that have been passed down for generations.
