On Saturday, October 5, Danny Spungen welcomed colleagues, new museum docents, friends and family to his home for a dinner event with special guest, Dr. Robert Jan van Pelt!

Dr. van Pelt joined dinner guests via Zoom to give a short talk and answer questions about his work on Montreal’s new Holocaust museum.

Along with Dr. van Pelt, we had several very special and very important Holocaust survivors join us for dinner, including Rodi Glass, Erna Gorman, Sam & Dede Harris, Ida Kersz, Judy Kolb, Ellie Merar, and Agnes Schwartz.

It was a great evening, filled with good food and even better company!
