Event Details

Please join a Voices of Hope Community in Conversation program cosponsored by Wilton Library on Wednesday, June 11, at 7 p.m. at WEPCO, 48 New Canaan Road in Wilton, CT.

The theme of the evening, We Are Stronger Together!, will feature Wilton First Selectman Toni Boucher  in conversation with Nina Jacobs about her remarkable survival of the Holocaust as a hidden Jewish child and her surrogate family. 

Born in 1942 in the Vilna Ghetto, Nina will recount surviving the Holocaust, and emigrating with her family to the United States in 1949, where they settled in Long Island, New York. She eventually moved to Connecticut, married an orthodontist and had three sons.

Voices of Hope promotes a culture of courage to stand up against hatred through Holocaust and genocide education and remembrance. 

Wilton Library is pleased to cosponsor this program.
