Spungen Foundation Summer Event: Conversation with Holocaust Survivor Agnes Schwartz & Community Leader Lewis Lee
Link to register:
Please join us for a 90 minute conversation with Agnes Schwartz, a Holocaust survivor, and Lewis Lee, a community leader in Milwaukee. The program will start with the testimonials of Agnes and Lewis as well as their take on current affairs and then we will transition to Q&A from the audience for the last ~30 minutes. Kiel Majewski will moderate the discussion.
This event is being organized by the twelve Next Generation grandchildren of the Florence and Laurence Spungen Family Foundation. While the foundation supports a variety of causes, facilitating discussions about the Holocaust and breakdowns in humanity have always been at the forefront of our mission. We look forward to sharing a piece of the work our foundation does with our larger community. Please feel free to invite friends and family – all are welcome!
