Join the Chicago Jewish Alliance for a visit to Anne Frank The Exhibition at the Griffin Museum of Science and Industry. This immersive exhibition is a full-scale recreation of the Secret Annex where Anne Frank, her family, and four others lived in hiding during the Nazi occupation.

The exhibition features never-before-seen artifacts from Anne Frank’s life and takes visitors through the events that shaped her story, from her childhood and the rise of Nazi Germany to the spread of antisemitism across Europe and the Frank family’s years in Amsterdam. Guests will have the opportunity to step inside the carefully reconstructed Annex and reflect on the courage, fear, and resilience of those who hid there before their arrest and deportation in 1944.

Following the exhibition, attendees are welcome to join the group for lunch. Participants may bring their own lunch or purchase food at the museum. Those who wish to join should meet the group at 12:45 PM near the Museum Kitchen cafeteria seating area.
