Northeast State will host a traveling exhibit showcasing the life of Oskar and Emilie Schindler in the Basler Library on the Blountville campus. The exhibit, sponsored by the Tennessee Consortium for International Studies and the college’s International Education Committee, will be on display April 10 – 26.
For more than four and a half years the Schindlers put their own lives at risk to save 1,200 Jews from the Nazi’s despotism and certain death at concentration camps.
Stephen Spielberg, director of the movie “Schindler’s List,” made Oskar Schindler renowned worldwide. Produced in 1993, the movie’s dramatic depiction of the rescue of Jewish prisoners during WWII, won seven Oscars.
This exhibition features more than two dozen panels depicting the eventful story of Oskar and Emilie’s life using documents and pictures, some of which have not been published before.
The exhibit will be housed in Room L226. Basler Library hours are as follows:
| Monday – Thursday |
7:30am – 8:30pm |
