Join us at the Museum for a remarkable talk by Aviva Fox and Egon Sonnenschein focusing on interfaith connection and the power of shared humanity.

Holocaust survivor Aviva Fox was just 3 years old when she was saved from certain death at the hands of the Nazis by the Prohics, a Muslim family living in Bosnia.

Decades later Aviva’s cousin and adopted brother, Holocaust survivor Egon Sonnenschein spearheaded a campaign to have the Prohic family declared 'Righteous Amongst the Nations' for their incredible acts of bravery.
