Commissioner Jeff Wasserman announced that Coconut Creek will host its second annual Holocaust survivor series on Monday, Jan. 27, at 6 p.m., to mark the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp.
Wasserman said the city will bring the Hate Ends Now Holocaust traveling exhibit, which includes World War II artifacts and “a cattle car replica, exactly what was used to transport the Jews to the concentration camps.” He urged residents to sign up through a link he said would be provided, saying, “So please, please, look below, click the link, sign up, do what you gotta do. Don't miss out, and we can't wait to see you.”
The announcement framed the event as both a remembrance and an educational opportunity. Wasserman called the occasion “special” and noted the linkage to the anniversary: “It is special it is very special because it is the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp.” The transcript did not specify a venue within Coconut Creek or a year for the Jan. 27 date.
City officials did not discuss any budget, sponsorships, ticketing costs, or safety protocols in the recorded remarks. The transcript also did not identify a direct web address or registration details; Wasserman referred listeners to “the link” without giving further specifics.
