PHOENIX — Officials have broken ground on what will be Arizona's first Holocaust education center.
The center will be located near I-10 and Central Avenue, just behind the Burton Barr Central Library.
The center's mission is "to be a resource to teach about the Holocaust with the goal of inspiring students and other visitors to become advocates that act to work toward a world without antisemitism, hatred, or bigotry."
The Hilton Family Holocaust Education Center is expected to open by April 2027.
