In memory of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, which took place in 1943 from April 19 to May 16, three local Holocaust Centers are teaming up with the Richard Rodgers Award-winning musical, “To Paint The Earth” to present a virtual program of music and narration that tells the story of the life of the Jewish Underground during this critical time.  The musical, is based on memoirs and first-hand accounts, that show how even after individual hope is lost, a community can still rise and shout to the world, “We are here.”

The program will include a presentation by one of the writers, Daniel Levin, a live performance by actress and singer, Lauren Lebowitz, an interview with Survivor and ghetto fighter, Michael Struss, and much more.
