Behind the Bookcase: A virtual experience with Anne Frank

Through this virtual reality tour, Anne Frank’s legacy can can be seen in a new, immersive way.  The Anne Frank House partnered with developer, Force Field VR, to recreate the Secret Annex where Anne Frank and her family lived in hiding from July 6, 1942 until their arrest on the morning of August 4, 1944. Using cutting-edge visualization technology and extensive historical research, the end result is an experience you will not forget.
As you are guided through the rooms by Anne, she will tell you what life in the attic was like. The rooms of the Secret Annex are furnished in the style of the time spent in hiding and provide an empathetic experience.

History: Holocaust Memorial Center of Florida

Our Center is one of the oldest facilities of its kind in the nation. It houses permanent and temporary exhibit space and archives. It is a nonprofit organization open to the public free of charge. 
Our focus is on the social, historical, moral, ethical, and economic implications of the Holocaust for today. Currently, the Holocaust Memorial Resource and Education Center offers a variety of programs to sensitize the public to issues of tolerance, diversity, and respect for cultural differences. Its leadership and supporters firmly believe that preserving the past helps us protect the future and that a moral and just community grows from understanding the watershed events of human history.

Don't miss Teen Writers Workshop: March 8th!

The foundation for making your voice heard on the causes most important to you begins  with our ability to use words knowledgeably and powerfully.  The program will inspire you on the power of words;  equip you with tools to write more powerfully and persuasively, and have you leave prepared to affect change on causes that touch your heart!
Highlights and key program take-aways:
  • A peer to peer program for teens
  • Writing is more than just words on a page. Journaling is more than venting your frustrations. It is the basis for change.
  • Writing and journaling allows for the exploratory safe space to determine your identity, examine the tensions you experience in the world, and come to a series of conclusions of who you want to be and what you want to do to change it.
  • The time we live in today requires bold knowledge and action. And it starts with creating the right base. Write for change.
Note for parents: if you would like to stay while your teen is attending the workshop, docent led tour of the museum will be available and you are welcome to experience our exhibit Behind The Bookcase: A Virtual Experience with Anne Frank.
