How Did You Survive?
The exhibit How Did You Survive? opens today at the Northwest Reno Library. How Did You Survive? consists of panels displaying the stories of 50 Holocaust survivors, many of whom are Nevada residents. This exhibit will be on display through May 31, with a reception on April 9.
 
In conjunction with the exhibit, the Northwest Reno Library has planned several special events for a wide range of ages, including story times, film screenings, and virtual reality tours of the Anne Frank House. For more information about these events and more, please visit our calendar of events.
