Our museum is a place that tells the story of October 27, 2018, and our shared humanity to equip visitors with the tools and confidence to take bold action toward building compassionate communities
The Museum at The Tree of Life Center for Humanity will be a place where the story of October 27, 2018, Pittsburgh Synagogue shooting and the powerful community response to it are explored in depth and placed in a broader context with national relevance. The Museum is designed to help visitors bear witness to what happened at the Tree of Life building in Pittsburgh’s Squirrel Hill neighborhood, understand the forces that shaped it within the broader history of American antisemitism, and honor the lives impacted by transforming memory into action. The exhibition will tell a story of resilience and the power of coming together to uplift our shared humanity.
Developed by Luci Creative in partnership with our Academic Advisory Committee, the Museum will integrate testimony, artifacts, media, and storytelling to create a journey of reflection, inquiry, and civic responsibility.
