Look closer, and each piece reveals powerful stories about Holocaust denial, antisemitism, and Jewish identity.Garfen will be in conversation with our curators to discuss the themes behind ‘Fabricated?’ and explore historical artefacts that shed light on Jewish life and resistance during the Holocaust.Event Schedule🕐 1–2pm: Artist Talk with Caren Garfen and Museum Curators
