Holocaust Museum Offers Teachers Free Admission

Candles Holocaust Museum and Education Center in Terre Haute offers educators free admission on the first Saturday of each month. University and K-12 educators can experience the museum for free with a valid school ID. Candles is Indiana’s only museum dedicated to the Holocaust.

“Educators are vital in telling the story of the Holocaust and survivors like Eva & Mickey Kor and Walter Sommers.” Troy Fears, Executive Director, said. “All educators, regardless of grade or class, teach the importance of respect and responsibility. This is our small way of giving back to educators and thanking them for everything they do.”

Free First Saturdays for Educators runs from now through May.

The museum is open to the public Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tickets are $7. For more information, visit www.candlesholocaustmuseum.org.
