Sunday, October 20 11 am – 3pm
Jewish Museum and Cultural Center Portsmouth
The Daffodil Project Rededication Ceremony, which commemorates the 1.5 million children who perished in the Holocaust, will take place at the Jewish Museum and Cultural Center at Chevra T’helim Synagogue in Portsmouth.
The Daffodil Project is a worldwide initiative to plant 1.5 million daffodils to honor these children. The vibrant yellow flowers symbolize resilience and hope, blooming each spring as a testament to the enduring spirit of those who suffered.
Participants will be able to purchase and pick up daffodil bulbs to plant, helping to create a living memorial that not only remembers the past, but also supports children facing humanitarian crises today. Through the purchase of bulbs, the memory of these children continues to blossom.
This annual event stands as a powerful act of remembrance and hope, uniting individuals in their commitment to preserving the memory of the 1.5 million child victims of the Holocaust through this beautiful project.
