About the event
Illinois Holocaust Museum, Temple Sholom, Sheerit Hapleitah of Metropolitan Chicago, Jewish United Fund, Jewish Federation of Chicago, and CJE SeniorLife Holocaust Community Services present “WE ARE HERE,” a concert of songs written in the ghettos and concentration camps of occupied-Europe. Conceived by Ira Antelis and lead producer David Mendelson along with Ira Antelis and Jeremy Perlin, the concert will honor the memory of all those who were murdered, and highlight the artists and writers who, in the worst of times, continued to create. With a 50 piece choir and performances and readings from some of Chicago's top artists, cantors and leaders, this powerful commemorative concert will include a candle-lighting ceremony and memorial prayers.
Together, we will honor the memory of those who were murdered during the Shoah and pay tribute to those who survived and have made a better world for us all.
